Group Programs

Casa Xalteva can work with high school and college programs and community groups of all kinds to arrange outstanding group programs based on your special needs.  In the past we have hosted many such groups from many different parts of the world.  We can provide meeting space, planning and logistical arrangements, homestays with Nicaraguan families, customized Spanish language courses, volunteer work, field trips, excursions and recreational events.  We can provide teachers and specialized courses, or work to support the faculty members you bring with you.  We negotiate special rates for all our services based on your program needs.  Our staff have the regional contacts and experience to make your course or group event a real success.  Our Executive Director, Dr. Ken Carpenter, has more than 30 years of experience in administering international education programs and is currently the Associate Director of International Programs & Studies at the University of New Mexico, Albuquerque.  For more information, contact:
