Hello Lee!

I see this is an interesting program which I'm willing to participate in, but I have a few questions regarding it.

1)Are foreign users (not from Britain) allowed to take part and will the fees be compensated accordingly?

2)Are people under 18 allowed to take part?

You know I will be in England at that time,however I do have the same question as Abdul , since I'm not British.

Also am I obligated to show some sort of certificate ,verifying my knowledge in the English language (I have 2 from Cambridge-CAE and CPE)

They need a CRB check, this is a a very detailed check on your character, this is run by a British agency. It normally takes 6 weeks for a British citizen to get this document. It is possible for folk from overseas to get it, but I am not sure of the process, as it presumably would involve a production of a similar document from your national authorities which would then have to be verified. The CRB document is required in the UK if you are going to work with children or vulnerable adults

If I apply for this and pass the CRB check, will the company pay for my plane ticket to England from California, USA?

Or will I have to cover that?

Just curious...
