Consider the purpose of your activity
OK, so you're interested - you know where you want to go and how to apply. But what exactly do you want to get out of the experience?
You should be clear about what you want your teaching or training visit to involve and the purpose of the visit, so make sure you have considered your aims and your personal and professional development needs. You may need to be flexible, but it's good to have a plan to help you and your host make the most of the visit.
