About PRO Programs
PRO programs are our 2 week professional travel experiences focused on three tracks: global health, nursing and physical therapy. During your time in Costa Rica, you will not only gain real-world, hands-on skills in your chosen track but also experience the best that your location has to offer. From tours to getaways, authentic food to epic adventure, PRO combines a rigorous professional development curriculum with all the best parts of traveling abroad.
PRO Destinations
PRO Costa Rica offers hands-on, professional experience for anyone interested in healthcare. You will develop professional and personal skills that are vital to success during and after college, and you will build confidence by working directly with patients in a clinic setting. Each small learning pod will perform patient in-take, evaluate and then present the patient to the physician for diagnosis. Differentiate yourself from your peers and increase your confidence that you are on the right path by participating in this medical shadowing experience. Once the group completes our hands-on experience, we will travel to explore the jungle of Arenal to fully experience the adventure of Costa Rica. This component of the program provides time for learning, self-reflection and debriefing about our experiences serving the local community and the impact on their long term career ambitions. Let’s be honest, these are also the study abroad adventures you’ll be telling your kids about one day!
