This paper discusses studentsʼ evaluations of the Global Active Program (G.A.P.) koza (course) which includes five-week preparatory workshops for a short study-abroad program from the perspective of active use of human resources both inside and outside of the university. This G.A.P. koza is one of the requirements for sophomore English students. Moreover, students are obligated to attend the G.A.P. koza before they leave for the three-week study-abroad program. The G.A.P. koza, composed of four workshops, involves skilled and experienced people, such as professional stage performers, foreign exchange students and instructors on TOEIC Listening and Reading, according to the purpose of each workshop. Twopart student questionnaires on the G.A.P. koza were collected and analyzed as data. The first part, a 5-scale assessment of the studentsʼ satisfaction level toward each workshop, is statistically processed. The second part, free responses to the four workshops, is qualitatively coded and labeled for analysis, based on a modified Grounded Theory Approach. The results indicate that students are satisfied with all four workshops in general and highly evaluate the unique characteristics of each workshop, which are enhanced by human resources both inside and outside of the institution.
