International Staff
International Staff at IPPs – Guidelines and Minimum Standards
International staff can contribute a lot to an IPP and we encourage those IPPs who feel an international staff would add to the skill set of the staff group to seek out qualified international staff. The guidelines and minimum standards below apply for all IPPs. Feel free to contact the International IPP Committee with any questions. Selection All staff must fill out the staff application form and send it to the IPP committee The home National Association of the international staff must approve the staff member’s participation as international staff, as is done for all programs. It is recommended that an IPP who needs or wants international staff writes an advertisement specifying the skills needed and budget available. The IPP Committee is happy to help distribute it. This is in order for IPP staffing to be open to anyone with the criteria, not only friends of the staff. Training All staff must be trained regardless of prior IPP or other experience. The hosting country/chapter or the international staff must pay cost for the international staff’s training (there is no funding from CISV International) The staff must be trained together except in unique circumstances. IPP staff training is largely project development, not only informing the staff of program information. IPPs that want to have international staff should consider this in staff selection. Participation If the whole staff agrees to have some planning days together before the IPP begins, International staff must also attend the planning days. Staff may not leave before the end of the IPP except in an emergency.
