AFICE COMMUNITY REPRESENTATIVES
Creating quality student exchange experiences
Community Representatives are AFICE's front line support personnel, working closely with their Regional Manager on matters related to the students' well-being. Their duties include host family screening, student placement, and orientations. Their most important task is to supervise the exchange students regarding their adjustment to their host family and high school. Without our local Community Reps, the AFICE student exchange program would not be able to function.
