As part of their visa requirements, au pairs are required to take classes at an accredited institution of higher learning, which generally would be a college or university. They can take any course they want, and it can be for credit or as part of a continuing education or extension program.<\/p>\n
Au Pair in America is the only program that is authorized by the State Department to offer an online option through UCLA, APIA Advantage, which focuses on American culture, and also has a volunteerism component. Many au pairs have enjoyed this option, which comes around a few times a year.<\/p>\n
