Student Exchange Area Representatives
ISE Area Representatives use their networking skills and community knowledge to make a positive impact in the lives of exchange students from all over the world. They also enhance the lives of the people in their communities by introducing them to new cultures, languages, and ideas. The Area Representative develops and maintains relationships with local high schools and families in the community in order to promote the program and recruit host families. He or she will maintain contact with families and students throughout the year to provide support and assistance.
This position is flexible and can range from a few hours per week to a new lifestyle - you decide! Area Representatives are compensated per student placement, and receive additional payment for supervising students throughout the program. ISE also offers international travel opportunities, generous bonus incentives, and free training.
The ideal candidate is a motivated self-starter who has strong ties to his/her community, experience working with teens, and a valid driver's license. He or she must be able to work a flexible schedule and must be able to pass a background check.

Mission Statement
Educating Tomorrow's leaders"
Throughout ISE's many years, our mission has come to mean many things. As we embrace the beginning of the 21st century, the International Student Exchange Board of Directors and Management team have placed the following as part of the mission emphasis:
1. Tomorrow's leaders are today's children of the world; they come from all backgrounds, nationalities, and beliefs.
2. Teachers, schools, Host Families, natural families, representatives (International and American), and the host community are all partners in the educational process.
3. International Student Exchange believes that true leadership begins
with a commitment to service. We encourage all program participants
to live a life of service with integrity, dignity, and a dedication to a
belief system greater than ourselves.
INTERNATIONAL STUDENT EXCHANGE SERVES THIS MISSION IN THE FOLLOWING WAYS:
1. We have many students from less developed countries as well as third world countries. We offer programs at a lower cost in these countries. We are looking at various ways in which we can encourage more minorities to host foreign students.
2. Through our training programs, newsletters, and orientations, International Student Exchange actively provides education to all participants. Increasing cultural awareness and celebrating our similarities, as well as our differences, are major thrusts of our program.
