CPCI Short-Term Host Family Requirements

If you would like to become a host family for our short-term students, please be sure that the following requirements suit you.

  • Host family to provide 2 rooms with 1 bed in each room, or 1 room with 2 beds in it for “Double Placement”. Or one room with one bed for “Single Placement.” Each room must have a window.
  • Beds, bunk beds, futons and cots are acceptable. Foamies or air mattresses on the floor are not acceptable.
  • CPCI students must have their own room(s) not to share with a family member or other international students from different agencies.
  • Host family to drop off and pick up students at each study site every morning and evening at the time scheduled. (CPCI will provide a list of the host families so that host families can arrange car pooling if necessary.)
  • Host family to provide a lot of activities, and spend time with their students in the evenings and during weekends.
  • All meals to be provided by host family (including a packed lunch and snack).
  • Host family to provide a simple written Welcome Letter for students including a photograph every year when CPCI requests. CPCI will file these and use them through a year.
  • Host mother and father’s most recent criminal record check. Photo copy is acceptable.

Note:

Students are all from Japan, and are studying English. During their stay we provide a 24 hour help line for any Emergency.

Short term programs occur a number of times each year between February and October, and involve students of different ages and different requirements. As a result, once you are registered with us, we will ask you about availability for each program with detail information including remuneration before you apply. 

Before you receive students, CPCI will give you the students profile such as name, date of birth, address, hobbies and interests, and allergy information. Also you will receive detailed itinerary and more information about each program.

CPCI will issue a cheque for the entire program on the day you receive your students.
