Health and safety info.
Watch the video below to see our extensive protocols and safety measures on iX campuses worldwide.
Our global operations team takes a data-driven approach to measure every aspect of our service, from accommodation incidents to health and safety responses.
We thoroughly vet every housing and excursion provider we partner with to ensure compliance with international study abroad safety, and quality standards. Our in-house legal team creates standardized contracts that protect iXperience and our students. All iX campuses are COVID compliant.
Trained iX staff on the ground are available for health and safety assistance 24/7, from the moment students land until they leave.
Live-taught classes and comfortable student housing. Our co-working, accommodation and excursion partners are vetted, trusted partners of iX and adhere to international safety best practices.
We provide external, objective support for students who request it, as well as comprehensive protection under US Title IX legislation.
While iXperience programs bring together learning and adventure, every excursion and daily activity is planned and undertaken with a safety-first approach. Our program staff know our campus locations extremely well, and we work with service providers who have a local perspective.
In each of our campus cities, iX staff members and our Health and Safety Officers are on call 24 hours a day to assist students whenever necessary. All iX student accommodation is safe, with CCTV monitoring and on-site security.
When students arrive, we present them with a comprehensive Health and Safety briefing, which guides students on local customs, how to take responsibility for their safety at all times, as well as keeping them informed of what resources and support structures are available to them when they need.
All students are required to have medical travel insurance in order to attend the iX Summer program. Your travel insurance details are required to be uploaded on the iX Student Portal before you depart for your iX Summer experience. Check with your home medical insurance if you are covered for international travel. Cover should include cover for quarantine accommodation as well as any COVID tests.
If needed, we recommend getting International Medical Aid through companies such as Worldtrips.
Your international medical insurance should have a guarantee of coverage for medical expenses in cases of COVID-19 for at least USD $50,000. A minimum coverage of USD $2,000 for extended lodging expenses due to quarantine is recommended.
