administrator Posted March 30, 2009 Report Share Posted March 30, 2009 (edited) Web-Chat: ?Planning Ahead for Summer Travel, & Student Work/Travel Programs? On Friday, April 3, 2009 from 3 pm until 4 pm, consular officers of the US Embassy in Belgrade will be available via webchat to answer questions about student work and travel programs, and about planning ahead for summer travel during the consulates busiest season. Last year about 3000 Serbian university students participated in the Summer Work & Travel program, which is intended to promote cultural exchange. This program sends current full-time university students to spend their summer break in different locations across the U.S. working in a variety of jobs. Then, it provides them with a month long period during which they can explore the many travel opportunities America has to offer. U.S. Embassy Belgrade interviewed more than 21,000 visa applicants in 2008, issuing visas to almost 90% of those that applied. Though visa services are available year-round, certain seasons experience much higher volume than others. The spring/summer season, from April to June, is by far our busiest, which means there is a greater need to plan ahead. The webchat is open for the general public. Those who would like to participate should go to https://statedept.connectsolutions.com/belgrade to join. Participants will be asked to register (once registered the log-in will be good for all future webchats.) If participants do not wish to register, they can sign in as a guest participant by taking the following steps: 1. Go to https://statedept.connectsolutions.com/belgrade 2. Enter email: belgradechats@state.gov 3. In Disclaimer menu click "I Agree" 4. In the Webchat Menu click on "Join this Webchat" below the photo of the guest speaker Although the webchat.state.gov site is in English, questions can be entered in Serbian and will be answered in the language used in the inquiry. The webchat page, accessed by clicking the "Join this Webchat" below the photo, is open now so that questions can be submitted in advance of the live event. ********* Web-chat (internet pričaonica) Planirajte na vreme putovanje na leto i studentske ?radi i putuj? programe! U petak, 3. aprila 2009. u terminu od 15:00 do 16:00 časova, sluzbenici ambasade SAD u Beogradu odgovaraće na pitanja o studentskim programima ?radi i putuj?, i planiranju putovanja u toku leta, u vreme kada se prima najvi?e zahteva za vizu u konzulatu SAD. Pro?le godine je oko 3000 studenata iz Srbije učestvovalo u programu ?radi i putuj?, čija je namena da promovi?e kulturnu razmenu. Ovaj program omogućava redovnim studentima da provedu letnji raspust na različitim mestima sirom SAD, radeći odredjene vrste poslova. Zatim im se omogućava da mesec dana putuju i posete interesantna mesta kojih je u SAD mnogo. U Ambasadi SAD je tokom 2008. godine intervjuisano vise od 21000 podnosilaca zahteva za vizu, pri čemu je izdato viza u skoro 90% slučajeva. Iako se zahtevi za vizu prihvataju tokom cele godine, u odredjenim periodima godine ima znatno vise podnosilaca. U proleće i leto, izmedju aprilla i juna meseca, podnosi se ubedljivo najveći broj zahteva za vizu, ?to znači i veću potrebu da se putovanje planira unapred. Web pričaonica je otvorena za javnost. Ukoliko ste zainteresovani, posetite stranu https://statedept.connectsolutions.com/belgrade. Učesnici treba da se registruju (jednom registrovani mo?ete učestvovati i u svim budućim razgovorima u ovoj pričaonici).
