Expand Student Opportunities

Beja aims to become a major tourist hub in the Alentejo region. This inspires area educators and community leaders to rapidly improve their students’ English skills so they will be prepared to work in related industries. You are needed, no matter your background, to help in this important development effort — and you will be warmly welcomed!

Help students prepare for new economic opportunities.

Enhance Your European Experience

There are gaps in your work day before, in between, and after classes where you can enjoy nearby historic sites, quaint cafés, charming parks, and enchanting walking paths. There are unlimited options to appreciate the local culture and arts. You might even stumble upon a colorful parade or a fascinating carnival during your service program.
