Amazing

An awesome experience by far. Had lots of hands on activities, met new friends and experienced what it's like to live as a college student. Everyone should have an Evision adventure to add to their personal bank of memories.

Overall great experience and would recommend to anyone

The workshops and group projects were lots of fun and opened my eyes to the many engineering fields. Although I'm not one for formal dress everyday, I appreciated the requirement because it made the "conference" more independent and, without a better word, formal. I will never forget this experience and I hope anybody that gets the option to go would go.

Global Young Leaders a life-changing experience

My daughter attended GYLC in Washington and New York in June/July of 2016. Travelling all the way from Australia was a major commitment but completely worth it. Envision's GYLC provided a forum for her to step outside of her usual school life, to start to see the world as an adult, and to see her role in it as full of potential. She made amazing friends and grew in confidence and maturity but she also had her eyes opened to so many important social and political issues. The organisation of the conference, accomodation and communication to parents by Envision was exceptional and we never felt concerned for our daughter or left out of the loop. I would recommend this programme and envision most highly.

Excellent experience

I was a little apprehensive at first registering my daughter because of the cost. During and after her attendence I am so glad she went. Money well spent.

How to safely cut the apron strings

My son had never been away from home before. He'll be 12 in October and he had never once been "on his own" without at least one family member around. He was nervous. God knows I was nervous. And yet, after family orientation, that all changed. Envision runs a tight ship. They have multiple things in place to ensure the safety of the children in their care, and to put parents like me at ease. My kid had the best time of his life. Whatever nerves he had were gone by the time I went to say goodbye for the week just like mine were. He came back more confident in his own abilities because he was allowed room to grow in a laid back, yet no less effective environment. He had to rely on himself and his roommates to be punctual and responsible for his own things. He's more independent. He doesn't question his reactions to things as much. He made friends that he's still keeping in touch with. I can't recommend this program enough. It really was the best thing for him, and is an experience he will carry for a lifetime. I got a week's vacation knowing that my child was in the very best of hands. Every concern and question raised was addressed and I would do it all again in a heartbeat.
