When people from diverse cultures and backgrounds know and understand one another—and gain the skills they need to contribute as citizens and leaders—they form the global partnerships that propel global security, economic stability, and tolerance.

Professional exchanges provide opportunities for international citizens to gain career experience or to share their knowledge or skills while living in a particular country. These exchanges can last from a few weeks to a couple years.

Visamate propels professional exchanges through its platform by facilitating the online environment for people from more than 150 countries at all points in their careers and academic lives.

The professional exchanges include networking opportunities with international counterparts, making site visits overseas, and undertaking industry and community discussions; our academic exchanges (through third-party providers) place international students in colleges and universities to strengthen their leadership and career skills; and our youth programs teach young people about leadership, current affairs, and peace-building.

These exchanges promote tolerance, empathy, and respect, as well as foster a deeper understanding of country-specific values and culture.
