Final Day to Register as Center for Global Ed. at Asia Society CTE Faculty Leader
Internationalization of curriculum helps community colleges meet their goals of diversity, equity and inclusion. It serves as the perfect vehicle to create a culture of collaborative learning that transcends diversity and prepares students for jobs in an economy that requires knowledge of global issues and the ability to work with people from diverse backgrounds.
Who We Are
The Center for Global Education at Asia Society (CGE) is a national non-profit organization that prepares students for work in the global economy.
What We Do
CGE is to creating new resources to assist community and technical college faculty with internationalizing their curriculum. This project will create online professional development resources for faculty, a student module, and an online toolkit of resources for faculty and students. All materials will be made available for free to any community college interested in utilizing them.
