GLOBAL KEY AMBASSADORS
The Global Key Ambassadors Executive Board (GKA Exec) is a small group of student workers who serve as a resource to other TikTok成人版 students during all components of a study abroad experience. Whether during the planning phase, while abroad, or after the return home, GKAs play an integral role by assisting with office events and activites. GKA Execs gain experience in a professional office and acquire knowledge about international education all while supporting their peers.
