Final Evaluation
At the beginning of the program, participants and staff must agree on the behavioural and learning expectations for everyone.
These provide a forum for communication between staff and participants and can be used to solve any issues that may arise.
Excursions allow for some exploration of the local culture.
Allows everyone to pause, reflect on, and share how the program is progressing and what they have learnt so far.
A project with a like-minded organisation allows participants to be immersed in, and give back to, the local community and culture.
A day for local CISV members and interested members of the community to come along and see what a Seminar Camp is.
Participants and staff reflect on the program, the skills they have developed, and the learnings they have gained.
Seminar Camps are overseen by a team of 4-6 staff over the age
of 21.
Staff are selected through a rigorous application process which
includes a working with children check, a police check and
contacting at least 2 referees.
They must complete CISV International’s Seminar Camp Staff
