The Work Abroad program is the only one of its kind available in the U.S. It cuts through the red tape to help thousands of students obtain temporary work in Great Britain, Ireland, France and New Zealand. With the assistance of the Council’s cooperating student organizations in each country, participants discover that finding a job abroad is no more difficult than at home. Apart from a modest program fee of $60, the only significant cost to the student is the airfare - and even that expense may be reduced by special student and youth fares available through the Council. The jobs are primarily unskilled - in restaurants, stores, and hotels - but salaries should more than cover the cost of room and board. Some participants save enough money out of their earnings to treat themselves to a vacation once they stop working. Employment found by participants in the past includes work as chambermaids or ports in London’s West End, as a wool presser in New Zealand, and as lifeguards on the Cote d’Azur. The program is limited to students 18 y^rs of age or older.
