Council on International Educational Exchange (CIEE)
About
The Council on International Educational Exchange, known as CIEE, is a nonprofit study abroad and intercultural exchange organization founded in 1947. Its mission is to advance peace by building understanding between people, countries and cultures. CIEE runs programs for high school students, college students, professionals, educators and lifelong learners, with options ranging from short summer experiences to semester-long study abroad in locations around the world.
Recent initiatives show the range of its work. Its Pledge to Lead Change in Study Abroad is a four-year, $6 million commitment to help colleges widen access to study abroad and improve student success. A company-wide Community Impact Initiative builds community service into every program, including new Good Neighbor high school summer programs in Mérida. CIEE also hosts donor-funded fellowships tied to its Berlin Open Campus program.
