CASEO Profile
Founded in 2009, the Council of Australian Student Exchange Organisations (CASEO) represents a collaborative effort among prominent secondary student exchange organisations within Australia.
The CASEO Mission
Our primary mission is to champion the significance of student exchange programs and advocate for enhancements in the policy and regulatory landscape. At CASEO, we unite to provide a unified voice on critical matters impacting the industry.
Within our network, all CASEO members maintain a dedicated team of volunteer Local Coordinators. These individuals play a vital role in offering first-level support to our exchange students, ensuring their safety and well-being throughout their immersive experiences. To reinforce our commitment to child protection, CASEO has produced an informative video that complements the training and resources available to our Local Coordinators.
Our Efforts
Our collaborative efforts extend beyond our member organisations. CASEO works closely with schools and communities across Australia, providing assurance that our member organisations are appropriately registered with regulatory authorities and fully compliant with regulatory requirements.
In contrast, non-registered organisations do not adhere to the stringent standards upheld by CASEO members. As such, we encourage schools and parents considering exchange programs to exercise caution and consider the inherent risks when engaging with non-CASEO members.
