Experience a tour
before you lead one
EF is committed to the continued professional development of our Group Leaders, and as part of this effort, we make it our priority to ensure that educators are fully prepared to lead educational tours by providing a mandatory safety training. During an EF training experience, new Group Leaders will have the chance to collaborate with their peers, while learning alongside experienced EF staff and world-class Tour Directors. The EF training experience covers a wide range of important topics all focused on supporting educators to lead safe, educationally impactful, and successful student trips.
