Founded in 1965, EF (Education First) is a global association of education companies that shares a common mission of opening the world through education, offering language, academic, cultural exchange and education travel programs. Some companies are in the business of technology. Others are in the business of finance, sports, or soft drinks. At EF, we're in a different kind of business. One that's a little less tangible, and a lot more important. We're in the business of understanding. For 60 years we've been the leader in international educational programs and culturally rich travel experiences with the power to change how people think, feel and act. The programs we deliver open the world to students and travelers in ways that challenge biases, overcome barriers, and pave the way for a more understanding world.
