“I have had two very positive experiences with international student exchanges, both with students whose families own manufacturing companies. My sixteen year son spent five weeks in Germany and was very impressed with the efficiency of German manufacturing culture, orderliness, architecture and history, and of course his host family.
Then later we hosted a German college graduate that who earned college credit for a full semester with GR Spring & Stamping in our Accounting Department. We continue to share ideas ten years later. International internships are a GREAT educational experience for the student and the hosting company.”

The exchange program is typically 6 weeks, paid or unpaid. Housing with a host family may be available.
