10 Why EF Education First? EF is the World Leader in International Education. For nearly half a century, EF has broken down barriers of geography, language and culture. EF has over 400 schools and offices in more than 50 countries. EF is different. In addition to educational tours, EF provides worldwide language learning, student exchange, cultural immersion and service tours, au pair services and college study programs, as well as a top-ranked international business school.

11 Safety & Rules 6-to-1 student to NL chaperone ratio On-site EF chaperones What are the behavioral expectations? The rules and guidelines are implemented to ensure a united, safe and successful group travel experience. ALL trip participants, regardless of age, are expected to maintain high standards of personal behavior. While the majority of activities are structured and supervised, students also have “free time” which does not involve constant supervision/surveillance. Group members must be able to assume responsibility for their actions and decisions. Students who are likely to act irresponsibly should not apply. “Other” questions? There is no question. Or exceptions. The rule is clear: no drugs, alcohol or tobacco products. If you are not sure you can live by this rule for the duration of the program, do not come on the trip. They have sent students home for this reason, and we are firm on this subject. If ANY traveler violates the rules, we have the right to send them home from tour at their expense.
