CEPA Alumni Programs

"Alumni Travel the World"
Customized Programs in Europe

Everyone knows that education does not end after college graduation. In fact, traveling to interesting and important destinations overseas can be one of the most rewarding and enriching life-long learning experiences after finishing college.

What better way is there to explore and learn about new cultures than to do so with a group of like minded people from your alma mater who have similar interests and backgrounds? There is something special about connecting with old and new college friends.

Traveling together can be a wonderful way to stay in touch while at the same time being able to explore history, learn about ecological and cultural sensitivity and engage the intellect.

CEPA Europe offers distinctive, high quality tours throughout Europe focusing on a variety of themes - everything from art to cultural heritage and culinary to film.

CEPA tailor-made programs are enriched with such educational aspects as well as those unique to your alumni group and university. Whenever possible, we will even arrange for a faculty member from your university to accompany your group.

Encourage your alumni to expand their knowledge and let them continue their learning!
