Welcome to CCIP
Learn, Engage and Create Impact that Lasts
CCIP is FUSIA’s flagship J-1 internship program under BridgeUSA. Since 2008, it has linked American hosts with a select pool of motivated interns from around the globe.
Apart from on-the-job training, participants engage with host communities — volunteering, networking, and building connections that enrich their experience. Hosts, in turn, benefit from fresh perspectives, cultural exchange, and meaningful collaboration.
Together, interns and hosts create mutual benefits. Interns grow with skills and values, while hosts gain new insights and lasting relationships.
