How to Apply to the Core Program

The Basics:

The Cultural and Occupational Resource Exchange (CORE) Program places international professionals primarily in the Central Ohio area (USA). The program is coordinated by US Together, which manages the participants' training experience, cultural needs, and compensation. Participants usually live with a host family and participate in arranged cultural activities. Suitable housing arrangements could be made for programs lasting more than two months.  

The participant is responsible for providing round-trip airfare, program administration fees, health insurance, and money for their personal expenses (approximately $200-$500 per month). In most cases, this program is funded through the training site.
