The Virtually Abroad Program (VAP) is an experiential activity in which students around the globe work together on projects in cross-cultural virtual teams. The aim is to expose students to the increasingly geographically dispersed and technologically connected world of business. The present guide includes required content and technology resources, and presents evaluative data on its success. In a 2015 VAP involving 30 Spanish and US students, data collected at three time points showed increased global and local identities, openness to cultural diversity, cultural intelligence, and perceived value of the VAP from T1 (start of VAP) to T3 (end of VAP).
