Group Study Exchange
An International Exchange Program for Young Professionals
Of
The Rotary Foundation of
Rotary International
What is Group Study
Exchange?
The Group Study Exchange
(GSE) program of The Rotary Foundation of Rotary International is a unique
cultural and vocational exchange opportunity for young business and
professional men and women between the ages of 25 and 40 in the initial years
of their professional life. The program provides travel grants for teams of
participants to exchange visits between paired areas in different countries.
For four to six weeks, team members study the host country’s institutions and
ways of life, observe their own vocations as practiced abroad, develop personal
and professional relationships, and exchange ideas. Team members can come from
corporations, small businesses, community organizations, medical and
educational facilities, government offices, and nonprofit agencies.
Why should I
participate?
Individuals who participate
in this rewarding, once-in-a-lifetime experience will return home with a
broadened cultural perspective and new understanding of a nation’s history,
language, commerce, and government. A GSE offers a unique opportunity to
develop leadership skills, work on team building, and increase self-confidence.
The program is designed to have an invaluable impact on the career of a young professional
in the increasingly global workplace by creating networking opportunities and
lifelong friendships.
What are the benefits
to my employer and my community?
GSE enhances the
international perspective of the next generation of young leaders that will
take your company into the future. GSE participants return with new
communication and facilitation skills that promote tolerance and collaboration
with professional people of other cultures. GSE fosters a creative approach to
problem solving by expanding the employee’s skill set, exposure to alternate
methodologies, and preparation for addressing community needs. In addition, GSE
provides a great public relations opportunity to promote awareness of your
business or organization, as local and international media may feature
interviews, photos, and articles about the exchange.
Who is eligible?
GSE team member applicants must:
•
Be between the ages of 25
and 40
•
Be fully employed
with at least two years of
work experience in their chosen field
•
Be in the early stages of their careers or professions
•
Reside in or be employed in our Rotary district and also be
citizens of India
•
Be proficient in the language of the country being visited
• Be personable, articulate,
cooperative, motivated team players, and enthusiastic about their vocations
• Seek to gain a maximum
educational value from the program, as well as be able to fulfill the rigorous
demands of international travel and active participation in an extensive
itinerary.
The best candidates for GSE
are raising leaders who meet the qualifications above and who have an interest
in people of other cultures. GSE can be an excellent way to recognize
top-performing staff or provide exposure for potential young leaders with
limited international experience.
Note: Spouses of participants
may not accompany teams.
In addition, the following are ineligible: a Rotarian;
an employee of a Rotary club, district, other Rotary entity, or Rotary
International; any Rotarian’s or Rotary employee’s spouse, ancestor (parent or
grandparent by blood), lineal descendant (child or grandchild by blood and any
legally adopted child); or a spouse of a lineal descendant.
What is the structure
of the program?
Teams are composed of 4-6
non-Rotarian team members, usually of various business and professional backgrounds,
and one Rotarian team leader. The GSE experience spans 4-6 weeks. During the
exchange, teams will visit local businesses, government offices, and community
organizations in the host district, tour historical and cultural sites, stay
with Rotarian host families, and make presentations about their home countries
and professions. Team members receive orientation and cultural preparation from
the sponsor Rotary district before their departure. This may include language
training, practice of oral presentations, visits to Rotary clubs, and
background about Rotary International’s mission and the programs of its
Foundation. The host country is determined before a team member’s application
and selection.
What is provided?
For each team member, The
Rotary Foundation provides the most economical round-trip air ticket between the
home and host countries. Local Rotarians in the host area provide for meals, lodging,
and group travel in their district. Each team member is responsible for all
personal and incidental expenses incurred before, during, and after the study
tour, including any personal travel arranged after the exchange.
What is required of
me?
Before leaving:
• Participate
in orientation sessions and group meetings, and obtain the necessary documents
for traveling. This includes passport, travel visa, immunizations, and medical
insurance.
During the tour:
•
Accept the decisions of the Rotarian team leader.
•
Fulfill any requirements to speak at Rotary host district
gatherings.
•
Remain with the group throughout the study tour except when
individual activities are planned.
•
Maintain standards of behavior that will reflect positively on
Rotary and the home country.
After returning:
• Prepare and submit final
reports of the tour as required by the sponsor district and The Rotary
Foundation.
•
Speak about your GSE experience to Rotary clubs and other
groups.
How do I apply?
Contact your local Rotary
club for application deadlines. Applications must be made through local Rotary
clubs; those sent directly to The Rotary Foundation will not be considered.
Candidates are selected by a qualified committee of Rotarian leaders.
Additional information about Rotary club locations, GSE application materials,
and program guidelines can be found at www.rotary.org.
