Best Month of My Life!

Aug 18, 2019

Forum-Nexus provided me the best month of my entire life. Through this trip you gain memories that last a lifetime and new best friends. Everyone on this trip became a family and was extremely helpful with everything. You get to meet people from all different states and countries and get to experience new cultures together. You get to experience so many different foods and ways of life. You attend professional visits that really help immerse you in the countries' culture. You also get to travel to not only various countries, but various cities too which really allows you to grow as a person and experience things that you could only dream of. I highly recommend this program to anyone who loves traveling, it is truly an amazing experience that you cannot forget!

What was the most surprising thing you saw or did?
I paraglided off the French alps in Chamonix France. I never thought I would even make it to see the alps nevertheless paraglide off of them. It was truly an amazing experience.

Just Do It, Man

Mar 16, 2018

When I found this program online, I didn't think it was real. The program has you travel to 5 countries in Europe (Spain, France, Switzerland, Italy, and Greece) and gives you enough time to travel to even more. It offers classes for all majors and they were very helpful with transferring over my credits to my college as well. The staff was all very friendly and was as accommodating as they could possibly be. It was also very organized, in it that something was planned almost every day, which is exactly how I want a program to be so that no time is wasted at all. Overall, I had something to talk about to my friends for months and I still talk about it up to this day. It was super fun and I recommend it to everyone.

What would you improve about this program?
I heard stories of how some people were not able to transfer their credits properly, which sucks because there 9 credits available. If the program could further help them with that, that would definitely be an improvement, but then again, I don't know who was at fault. For me, they helped me a lot and kept constant communication with me before the program even happened.

Review of Forum Nexus

Mar 8, 2018

Amazing study abroad program! It was the greatest thing I did in college and I would recommend it to everyone. Every person can get something beneficial out of this program and won't regret doing it! The variety of events and activities that the staff picks out and the experience gained is like no other study abroad program.

The friendships and connections I have made from this program will stay with me for the rest of my life. I always tell my friends to sign up for the program because I believe they are missing out on something that could truly be a special month for them as it was for me!

What is your favorite travel memory?

I have traveled to a lot of places that I enjoyed very much, but two have become my absolute favorites. The first was London in 2012 since that was my first time to visit a European country, and the second was of course my trip to Jordan in 2015 where I met my beautiful wife Nadine for the first time.

How have you changed/grown since working for your current company?

I have become an international citizen of the world! Working with and meeting people from different countries around the globe really changes you. Since being a part of Forum-Nexus, I have become more aware of different cultures not just because of the traveling element of the program but also because of the diversity of the student body. I now have many new friends from all around the world.

What is the best story you've heard from a return student?

The best story is when I feel the impact of this international experience on any student. A student last year got really excited about learning some Arabic words from me, Nadine, and other Egyptian students during the program. What makes the story more exciting is that he told me after going back to the US after the program that he is taking online courses and teaching himself how to speak and write Arabic!

If you could go on any program that your company offers, which one would you choose and why?

I would choose to go to any new city we visit. I really like experiencing new places and knowing more about different cultures. Luckily through Forum-Nexus, I get to do that every year because we always visit new countries and cities. In 2018, I visited Amsterdam for the first time, and I absolutely loved it!

What makes your company unique? When were you especially proud of your team?

What makes Forum-Nexus unique is the truly international, multi-country, life-changing experience that we offer. Visiting many countries with such a diversity of students and staff members provides the most international exposure to any student. The professional visits included in the program provide a unique, closer look at major international corporations, which helps in developing the students’ careers and puts them steps ahead in their work life.

I am really proud to be a member of this team, especially after working with my colleagues last summer. We facilitated a large group of students traveling to more than 9 cities in 5 weeks while providing them with the highest standards of care. Of course, it is really important to mention the huge positive energy provided by our Program Director, Dr. Hugo. He is an incredible person and extremely well-informed of all international aspects. I can definitely say that his energy and charisma are a major factor behind the success of the Forum-Nexus programs.

What do you believe to be the biggest factor in being a successful company?

I believe the biggest factor in being a successful company is having a family spirit. We all work together as one family with each staff member putting his or her all in providing a life-changing experience to our students. Students feel such a spirit, and feel, although being away from home, that they are experiencing new cultures and landscapes, while traveling with such a warm group of friends that it feels like family!
