    ASSE was established in 1976 as the American Scandinavian Student Exchange by the Swedish Government to organize student exchange programs between Sweden and the United States. Soon Denmark, Norway and Finland elected to participate. At present, ASSE works closely with the Canadian provincial ministries of education. It maintains 38 offices in 31 countries and accommodates more than 30,000 high school age students and host families annually in its programs in the participating countries.  ASSE's mission is to foster international understanding through educational and cross cultural programs.

    CGCC: Study abroad can be a powerful education tool. Research shows these experiences continue to impact students' lives for years. Just as international students in the United States will some day be in positions of world leadership, so will U.S. domestic students. Maricopa College's study abroad programs prepare American students to be confident communicators with people from other cultures in other countries and continue to serve as goodwill ambassadors.

    US Department of State | Exchange Programs:  Less than 10% of U.S. students study abroad, and very few of these students are in high school. Yet, studying abroad early builds global competencies such as language and cross-cultural skills, maturity, and clarity about one's post-secondary education and career.  The Youth Leadership Program fosters mutual understanding, respect, and civic engagement among young Americans and their international peers. During the exchanges, students and educators participate in workshops, community service activities, team building exercises, meetings with community leaders, leadership development, and live with local host families. Upon their return home, the students apply what they have learned to implement projects that serve needs in their communities.
