Countdown to the trip with your Squad!

1) Set the perfect trip up for your group

Start by filling out our quick and easy online Squads Abroad Trip Proposal Form or contact us with an inquiry. We’ll provide you with a customized trip proposal and pricing for the group that you’ll travel with!

Through this process, you’ll work with our awesome Director and President of Squads, Erik Werner, to determine the perfect destination, number of days, budget, and type of activities that are perfect for your group.

2) Recruit, recruit, recruit! – You can’t have a Squad without the volunteers

Now is the time to recruit fellow students to participate on the squad! Not to fear though, we provide you with all the materials you need to get administrative and parental approval.

We also will make sure you have all the additional documentation that is needed to recruit and promote. This will include some intriguing powerpoint presentations, reliable safety and security measures, and housekeeping paperwork like liability insurance declaration, country and volunteer partner fact sheets, lodging information, and country contact sheets.

Another super simple and easy way to recruit volunteers is by showing them the joy and excitement that it brings to you through conversations you have in classes, social media and many other ways!
