Canada Study Abroad Program
Canada offers a close-to-home international setting with two official languages and a strongly multicultural society. Students can visit cities such as Toronto, Ottawa, Montreal, Quebec City and Vancouver, along with natural landmarks like Niagara Falls. The program is especially well suited to education courses, and ARAMFO has offered a Teacher Leader Fellowship Program in Canada.
