Purpose:

The Sending Plan Template is a document to help Sending Coordinators and other volunteers plan and prioritize Sending tasks for the upcoming cycle. While it is primarily a tool for the volunteer, it also communicates goals to your TDS and Study Abroad Specialist so there is a reference point for checking in throughout the cycle.

Tips for use:

Be clear and specific in your goals for the coming year. For example instead of saying “increase recruitment activities,” list the recruitment activities you intend to hold, along with the volunteers who plan to be the main contacts for that activity. If you do not intend to make any changes in a certain category but wish to maintain the same level of activity, then indicate so on the sheet.

The accompanying calendar is a good reference document as you fill out this template – it is a visual representation of peak times for Sending activities throughout the year.

Remember, MyAFS Help and Learning is a great resource! It’s your one-stop starting point to get answers.

Goal Setting:

The expectation that your team meets or exceeds your goal number of students abroad, and strives to meet or exceed the four-year average for core program participants (not Sponsored Programs).
