Learning Across America - More weekend classes!
No Comment |Posted by: aferreira on July 9, 2011
I know my au pairs are always excited to learn about new options to fulfill their Educational Component requirement.
Most au pair like to use their free time to join the outdoors and they also know their English will be great by the end of their au pair year. For those two simple reasons, the weekend classes are a popular option amongst them.
Cultural Hi Ways and BMCC from NYC put together a great travel/education option where you can earn some of your educational hours while traveling around after few classes about the subject. Please, read below the concept, also found at the Cultural Hi Ways website.

Borough of Manhattan Community College (BMCC-CUNY) is offering educational courses (Niagara Falls-The Flow of History / Boston - A Revolutionary City / Washington, DC - Monuments and Memorials) as part of their Learning Across America program for students living in the METRO NEW YORK CITY / TRI-STATE area and WASHINGTON, DC METRO area. You will earn 45 hours of credit, or 4.5 CEU’s per course. The price of these educational courses start at $289 and include on-campus classroom sessions AND a weekend tour to the destination you study.
For the au pairs who live in the Washington, DC area there are three options coming up:
1. Niagara Falls - The Flow of History
Classes: August 28, September 10 and 18
Tour: September 30 - October 2
