Group Study Exchange Program

What is Group Study Exchange?

The Group Study exchange (GSE) program is a unique cultural and vocational exchange opportunity for young business and professional men and women in their initial years of professional life. Rotary districts in different countries are paired to send and receive professional study groups of four non-Rotarian team members and one Rotarian team leader to travel for four to six weeks, staying in the homes of Rotarians when possible.

From its origin in 1965, this unique program has been a success. It has provided meaningful vocational, educational, and cultural experiences for professional men and women around the world. With good planning, a goal-driven itinerary and active participation of dedicated Rotarians, a GSE can be an exceptional educational experience for both the visiting GSE team and local Rotarians.
