Handbook

Your program proposal must:
- Contain all required information and documentation.

Risk Management
Traveling abroad is a great experience that may come with some risk. Please consider the following while planning and leading a Study Abroad Program:
- Consider purchasing travel insurance for yourself and encourage your students to do the same.
- Emergency Health Insurance will be included in each FLSA trip.
- Always travel with a cell phone that works in the destination country or countries, and please give the number to Study Abroad.
- Seriously consider booking your air travel as a group through Study Abroad. Traveling as a group is always a good idea – remember that some students may not have traveled before, especially internationally. If you decide to book airfare individually, please have all participants’ itinerary in case of an emergency.
- Provide students with emergency contact information.
