A passion for education. A passion for people. This is the cover of this year’s ELIC brochure that tells about who we are and what we do. It brilliantly and simply states what we are about. We love education. We believe education is a gift. And we love people. We love to gift people with education.

Usually in info-blogs such as this one, we tell you all the information about who we are, what we do, how to get started, etc. But today we are going to be bold and cut to the heart of things. That information is below, but here’s what you really want to know.

Why Go With ELIC:
It’s time. We know how it feels to want to make an impact with your life. That’s why we tirelessly and wholeheartedly seek out people like you. Our lives are short and the opportunities to make an impact are great. We often hear it’s a small world, so let’s reach the world and leave a mark that lasts.

Our question is: Are you ready?

Who We Are:
Wrapping up our birthday month, we are excited to celebrate 35 years of our front-row seat, educating the future leaders of the world. We consider it both a privilege to be able to provide high-quality education as well as an opportunity to build genuine relationships with our students, colleagues, and neighbors.

What We Do:
We send passionate people to work in some of the most remarkable places on earth. At the invitation of universities and governments, we work in over 14 countries in Asia, Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and North Africa.

We create amazing teams of people who live and work alongside one another, serving university students, refugees, community members, outreach recipients, and more. And we have a wide range of programs that vary in commitment length, location options, and teaching focus.
