Workshops

Our workshops are an entirely new kind of experience.

Designed to provide a cost effective means of international travel, study, and exploration.
Perfect for studying abroad, academic research, continuing education, or learning more about culture and place.
Each workshop is supported by our 24 hour on-location UrbanBuddy support.

Pioneering Support.

Included with each workshop that we facilitate is our Student Membership. The membership will guide you through your pre-departure, on-location and re-retry experience. Expert advice from your on-location UrbanBuddy every step of the way. Housing, booking air travel, currency / banking, foreign languages- whatever your concern your Student Membership will provide the necessary support.

Custom Workshops.

We build unique study abroad opportunities for individuals, groups and universities. We offer classrooms with no boundaries and no limits. Our research programs highlight not only academic resources, but in addition, we showcase the social, cultural and tourist aspects of a place. Pictured to the right is our Off Campus Workshop designed in collaboration with the State University of New York, Department of Landscape Architecture. Hosted at the Institute for Advanced Architecture, www.iaac.net, on October 18 – 22, 2010.

A Vision. It is our aim to connect our participants to professionals and academics in a collaboration of knowledge, hands-on experience and live discussion.

Strategic Partnerships.

We work with businesses, universities, professors, institutions and individual people to build workshops within a collaborative platform. Our workshops are supported by academic lectures, professional networking, local city tours, and social events. If you, your organization, or your universities are interested in designing or participating in a workshop, please contact us today with your needs and constraints and we’ll work with you to accomplish your goals.
