Looking for Applicants for GSE Team Members
The Group Study Exchange program is sponsored by the Rotary International Foundation. The idea behind this exciting program is to give young business and professional men and women between the ages of 25 and 40 a unique opportunity to experience a cultural and
vocational exchange. The program provides travel grants for a four person team and a Rotarian team leader to travel to the area around Santiago, Chile from March 19 – April 19, 2011. While in Chile, the team members are being hosted by local Rotarians. The chosen team members will study the institutions, the Chilean way of life and observe their own vocations as practiced in Chile. The program is planned by the hosting Rotarians and their clubs.
Applicants must be between the ages 25 and 40 Be fully employed with at least two years of work experience in their chosen field Be personable, articulate, cooperative, motivated team players and enthusiastic about their voca-
tions Be a Canadian citizen Be prepared to spend considerable time in preparation for the trip. Team members will give verbal
