Our Two-Phase Approach

Phase 1: Study Abroad Readiness Audit

We conduct a comprehensive audit to assess your institution’s ability to host US students, covering:

• Policies and procedures

• Academic calendar alignment

• Admissions and registration processes

• Student support services, including visa assistance and accommodation

• Program marketing and completion frameworks

Phase 2: Partnership Facilitation

Using insights from the readiness audit, we create a customised institutional profile and:

• Share it with US universities seeking study abroad partnerships

• Facilitate introductions to at least five prospective partners

• Provide ongoing support to guide communication and partnership development

CCG helps institutions establish direct, high-impact connections with US universities, ensuring study abroad offerings align with evolving priorities.
