Det norske kontoret startet opp i 2008 og har utviklet seg til å bli en solid organisasjon med tre ansatte. Alle som jobber hos oss har selvfølgelig vært på utveksling selv. into Norge kombinerer unge, entusiastiske ansatte med mer enn 30 års erfaring hos våre kollegaer i Tyskland og andre europeisk land. into tilrettelegger for at du som utvekslingselev skal kunne få det beste året i ditt liv. Med engasjement og personlig innsats ønsker vi at utenlandsoppholdet til våre elever skal bli en vellykket og uforglemmelig opplevelse. Ved å følge de tre stikkordene åpenhet, ærlighet og tydelighet, gir vi eleven et realistisk bilde av hva man kan forvente som utvekslingselev, og vi gir eleven verktøy for å takle problemsituasjoner. På denne måten håper vi på å forberede eleven på utfordringer som kan oppstå og forhindre falske forhåpninger. Skolene som vi samarbeider med i Canada og New Zealand har mange års erfaring innen utveksling. På skolevalgsprogrammet er det representanter fra skolen som har ansvaret for å velge vertsfamilie og følge opp eleven i løpet av oppholdet. into er godkjent av Kunnskapsdepartementet og du kan søke om utdanningsstipend fra Lånekassen for utvekslingsåret. Du får mellom 40 000 kr og 70 0000 kr, gitt at utvekslingsåret blir godkjent. Denne ordningen evalueres fra år til år. Ta derfor tidlig kontakt med rådgiveren på skolen din. I denne brosyren kan du lese mer om de ulike skolene som tilbys på skolevalgsprogrammet. Ta gjerne kontakt med oss dersom du har noen spørsmål. Vi gleder oss til å høre fra deg! Hilsen oss i into Education I Canada jobber vi med fire forskjellige skoledistrikt i provinsen British Columbia og i New Zealand samarbeider vi med en gruppe skoler som tilhører ODENZ – Outdoor Education New Zealand. Med skolevalgsprogrammet vil du selv kunne velge hvilken skole du ønsker å gå på. Hver skole tilbyr et bredt og variert tilbud innen fag, sport og andre fritidsaktiviteter. Du vil ha en egen kontaktperson på din skole som er ansatt for å ta seg av utvekslingselevene. Alle vertsfamilier er funnet gjennom skolen din, og det er derfor vanlig at du vil ha vertssøsken som går på samme skole som deg, selv om ikke alle vil ha det. Siden samarbeidet mellom into, skolene og utvekslingselevene er veldig tett, har vi mulighet til å tilpasse programmet til hver enkelt elev. Hvis du har spesielle ønsker eller behov i forhold til sted, vertsfamilie eller fag vil vi i de aller fleste tilfeller kunne klare å tilfredsstille disse ønskene. F.eks. ønsker du å komme til en vertsfamilie som bor på en gård hvor det er hester, eller du sliter litt med matte og trenger ekstra hjelp, vil dette være ting vi vil ta hensyn til. TILPASSET DINE FAGKRAV Du vil ha mulighet til å få se fullstendig fagoversikt ved de forskjellige skolene før du bestemmer deg. Denne oversikten kan du ta med deg til rådgiver her i Norge, for å forsikre deg om at du kan få de riktige fagene mens du er på utveksling, slik at du får året godkjent. Etter skoletid vil det være muligheter for å delta på forskjellige aktiviteter som blir arrangert gjennom skolen. Tilbudet varierer litt fra skole til skole, men alle har et sterkt tilbud innen forskjellige fritidstilbud og idretter, samt diverse klubber.

TILBUD OG KONTRAKT flyplassen som ligger nærmest vertsfamilien din. Her vil du bli møtt av vertsfamilien din. Nå er du og alt annet klart for avreise. Vi booker flybillett for deg fra Oslo og helt frem til den WWW.INTO-UTVEKSLING.NO 5 6 INTO LIFE INTO LIFE VERTSFAMILIE & SToTTE Kort sagt: il deg.. Det er opp t Den ideelle vertsfamilien er situasjonsavhengig. Det er mulig at elever uten søsken drømmer om én vertsfamilie med en eller flere brødre og søstre, mens en annen elev heller vil være alene i vertsfamilien. Noen er glade for at det finnes kjæledyr i familien, mens andre kanskje ikke liker dyr i det hele tatt. En vertsfamilie må ikke være en typisk kjernefamilie, men kan også være for eksempel foreldre som har barn som allerede har flyttet hjemmefra for å studere, eller par uten barn. Alenemødre og -fedre kan også tilby et flott hjem og mye moro. Det viktigste er at kjemien mellom deg og din vertsfamilie stemmer. Den ideelle vertsfamilien er den som forstår seg på deg. Hvor mange medlemmer familien har spiller ikke stor rolle så lenge du trives i familien. Vennlighet og gjestfrihet er nøkkelen til at dette blir ditt andre hjem. Men husk at vennlighet er en toveis gate, og holdningen og vennlighet og viljen din til å tilpasse deg er nødvendig for at integreringen blir en suksess. HVOR BOR VERTSFAMILIENE? Vertsfamiliene bor i området rundt den skolen du har valgt. Her kommer du raskt i kontakt med åpne og interessante mennesker. De vil ønske deg velkommen og hjelpe deg med å bli kjent med deres levemåte og kultur. Naturligvis er de også interessert i å få vite alt om deg og din kultur. RIKTIG HOLDNING Vertsfamilien er det viktigste grunnlaget for et vellykket utvekslingsår. De vil ikke møte deg som gjest, men som et nytt medlem av sin familie. For å gjøre dette til en suksess må du være en fleksibel, ”open minded” person. På den ene siden er du kanskje redd for at vertsfamilien ikke oppfyller dine forventninger. På den andre siden håper også vertsfamilien at du passer deres forventninger, at du trives og integreres i familielivet deres og kan nyte et fantastisk år med dem. FINNES DEN IDEELLE VERTSFAMILIEN? Begge sider er spente, og begge sider er litt redde - det er normalt. I begynnelsen vil mange ting være merkelig for deg. Prøver du ditt beste og deltar i familiens aktiviteter har du sjansen til å gjøre den nye kulturen og levemåten til din egen. Dette krever selvfølgelig at du behandler ditt nye hjem og familie med respekt og åpenhet. VERTSFAMILIENS MOTIVASJON tro at samværet ikke lenger vil fungere, er det mulig å bytte vertsfamilie. I alle tilfeller er det viktig at du sier ifra når du har problemer og ikke trives; ta kontakt så tidlig som mulig. Først når vi vet om et problem er vi i stand til å hjelpe. STØTTE I VERTSLANDET Ved problemer eller spørsmål i løpet av utenlandsoppholdet er det best å ta kontakt med din lokale kontaktperson først. Han eller hun kjenner vertsfamilien og skolen din og vil kunne hjelpe deg best. Dersom du trenger noen andre å snakke med, kan du også selvsagt kontakte oss i into. Vi har lang erfaring med utveksling og er her for å gi deg råd og støtte. Vi er ikke bare tilgjengelig når du har problemer, men også når du vil fortelle oss om gode erfaringer. Vi oppfordrer deg til å gi oss tilbakemeldinger hver måned. Vertsfamilier åpner sitt hjem for en utenlandsk elev av mange grunner. Ofte er familiene stolte av sitt eget land, og ønsker å vise andre unge mennesker deres levemåte. De viser seg best fram ved å åpne huset sitt og la deg delta i deres daglige liv. Vertsfamiliene i Canada og New Zealand vil få en månedlig økonomisk støtte. HVORDAN FINNER VI VERTSFAMILIER? Vertsfamilier må også søke om å delta i dette programmet. Søknadsskjemaer må bli fylt ut, de får besøk og referanser sjekkes. Først etter disse nøye undersøkelsene får en familie lov til å ta imot utvekslingselever. Vertsfamilier velges uten hensyn til hudfarge, religion eller yrke. Det viktigste er at de er vennlige og omsorgsfulle. HVEM FÅR HVILKEN VERTSFAMILIE? Gjennom skolevalgprogrammenet vil du ha en innvirkning på hvilken vertsfamilie du vil få. Som vi har nevnt tidligere vil dine ønsker og behov bli tatt hensyn til. Er du f.eks. allergisk mot husdyr, vil vi passe på at din vertsfamilie ikke har husdyr hjemme. Eller om du ønsker å komme til en familie med visse interesser, gjør vi det vi kan for å finne en familie som passer. KAN JEG BYTTE VERTSFAMILIE? Selv i de beste familier kan det forekomme misforståelser. I slike tilfeller vil vi og skolen din være der for deg. Sammen med din lokale kontaktperson vil vi prøve å se hvor problemene ligger og løse dem. Dersom problemene ikke kan løses ved samtaler og det er grunner til å HAR DU LYST TIL Å TA IMOT JA, VI ER INTERESSERT I Å TA IMOT EN EN UTVEKSLINGSELEV? UTVEKSLINGSELEV! Hvert år vil unge mennesker fra verden rundt se og oppleve landet vårt. Våre studenter kommer i stor grad fra våre kolleger i andre intoland, men også USA og Canada. Elevene kommer til Norge for enten et semester eller et helt skoleår for å bli kjent med vår kultur og vårt liv. For disse elevene søker vi hyggelige, imøtekommende vertsfamilier. Hvis familien din ønsker å ta imot en utenlandsk elev, kan du fylle ut kupongen og sende det til oss. Merk: Dette er ikke en betingelse for å bli akseptert i våre programmer. Vi ser frem til å høre fra deg!

This teacher meets regularly with each to review progress and modify timetables on an individual basis. Also part of the sports school is the flex-ed program. The Flex-Ed Program was first designed to accommodate the training/ study/work needs of all students, using a ROCKY MOUNTAINS school DISTRICT combination of on-line and classroom learning.
