GCHV Programs

• Our specialty expertise is conducting medically themed programs that cater to the interests of those students seeking professions in healthcare. We have 4 categories of medical programs as follows: 

1. General Healthcare are teams composed of those students that are Nursing, PreMed, Physician Assistant, Pharmacy, and PT/OT.
2. Dental teams are a specialized cohort that can work alongside a general healthcare team, or most times as an independent cohort.
3. Physical Therapy teams are a specialized cohort that will work as an independent cohort.
4. Veterinary Medicine teams are a specialized cohort that will work as an independent cohort.

• Our education focus is to provide an opportunity for students seeking to become teachers, to get "real-world experience" working in a classroom setting as a teachers aide.  We have 3 categories of education teams as follows:

1. Primary School teams will work in a school setting where they will have an opportunity to work with children from the age of 4-8, or 9-13. This type of experience can be carried out in rural or urban schools.
2. High School teams will work with freshmen from High School to Senior High School. Normally this type of experience takes place in the morning from 7:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
3. College teams In this particular project the experience is even greater since the type of teaching practice will be more focused on a specific class. For example: Math, Science, English Language as a class and others.

• A country defined by its lakes and volcanoes, abuzz with rich coffee harvests and influenced by the traditions of its indigenous peoples, Nicaragua is the ideal location for travelers interested in ecotourism.
• Thanks to its mountainous landscapes, cloud forests teeming with wildlife, and Caribbean oceanic vistas, the term ecotourism takes on many forms here. 
• Aspects of Ecotourism will be incorporated into all programs and will be facilitated by Nica Bike Ecotours Company. Students will be introduced to some of the most enchanting opportunities to include physical and cultural activities that will give them a better appreciation of "the land of lakes and volcanoes".
