Coming soon: How an EF travel experience changed this teacher's life! It's stories like this that make us proud of the work we do. Earlier this year, we hosted our first EF Impact Live for staff in our Boston office with Diane Cortazzo, a retired teacher who has been travelling with EF for over 30 years. In that time, she's opened the world to over 1,000 students and adults through EF Educational Tours and EF Go Ahead Tours. The film we made of that event will premiere next week. Make sure that you are subscribed to our YouTube channel (https://lnkd.in/eNKTKZ_M) and turn on "all" notifications so that you are notified when it goes live! In the meantime, check out this moment from the film... #WeAreEF #EFImpact

60 years of opening the world through education
Info
Founded in 1965 in Sweden, 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. You’ll find us working across more than 50 countries, with offices in some of the world’s greatest cities—each one filled with smart, driven people who push each other to be better every day. And yes, we have technology, we have finance, we even have sports with our own professional cycling team. But it’s what we do with it—building greater understanding, breaking down barriers, and creating a better world that makes all the difference. A notice on recruitment scams Education First (EF) accepts job applicant applications, reviews resumes and will contact you directly if there is an interest in your resume. Only submit your resume through our official website, careers.ef.com. We never ask our applicants to pay a fee for any service whatsoever.

Proud to see Hult International Business School, founded by Bertil Hult (who founded EF), continue to push boundaries with Dare Mighty Things, empowering students to think globally, act boldly, and make an impact that matters.
🚀 Dare Mighty Things is ready for lift-off. Dare Mighty Things is our new brand platform. A rallying cry to strive, to risk, and to take action rather than watch from the sidelines. The phrase has inspired bold ventures for generations. It was encoded in binary on the parachute of NASA’s Perseverance rover as it descended onto Mars, and it was first spoken by Theodore Roosevelt over a century ago to challenge people to choose courage over complacency. Today, that same spirit defines the Hult experience. Because no one learns to lead by sitting still. At Hult, you’ll work with real companies on real challenges—not just for grades, but to make an impact that matters. You’ll build the human skills the world needs most—like curiosity, collaboration, and critical thinking—while shaping your mindset through global experiences and practical learning. Watch our new campaign film and ask yourself: Will you Dare Mighty Things? #DareMightyThings #UnleashTheHultInYou #HultBusinessSchool #Hult

As an international company, we attract candidates (especially those early in their careers) who already have some form of international experience. Over the years, our recruitment teams have seen many applications, and some qualities stand out more than others. If you're applying for a role and want to highlight your study, travel, exchange, or work experience abroad, here are a few tips that might help. #WeAreEF

One of our core values is “Nothing is Impossible”. This story is just one example of how that can look at EF. When our EF Language Abroad teams from around the world came to Tarrytown, NY recently for their Global Kick-Off, Andrea, Director of Operations on campus, had an idea. What if we called the mayor’s office and asked them to light up the Governor Mario M. Cuomo (Tappan Zee) Bridge in EF pink to celebrate? The initial response was no. But she didn’t give up there. Her “Nothing is Impossible” mindset led her to keep trying, and in the end, the bridge was lit up in EF pink for everyone to see. #WeAreEF

EF Language Abroad kicking off the year in style! Of course, bringing people together across borders and cultures is what we do best through our programs, but the same applies to our people. This is why we get our teams together once a year to share ideas, celebrate achievements, and set the course for the months ahead. Here are some highlights from regional events in Spain, Germany, France, Mexico, Colombia, the Nordics, Vietnam, the US, and from our Global Kick-Off in Tarrytown, New York, at one of our beautiful EF campuses. #WeAreEF
