Greetings from The Forum on Education Abroad!
I am writing to share information about an exciting FREE opportunity for Community Colleges. We recently partnered with The Centers for International Business Education and Research (CIBER) to offer the CIBER Consortium For Education Abroad (CC/FEA) to Community Colleges for FREE!
It is almost that time again. In a little over a month we will, hopefully, all be attending this year’s conference at beautiful Glendale College, on Saturday, October, 10/19/24, 9:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m.
Studying or working abroad can be an exciting and transforming experience, opening your eyes to new languages, foods, music, art, landscapes and architecture. It also places you in daily contact with people who experience and react to life in ways different from those to which you are likely accustomed. You will be experiencing new customs in a new culture and all the wonderful and mysterious intricacies that go along with it, something that is often simultaneously thrilling and daunting.
I recently received an inquiry from Prof. Dr. Bijay Kumar Kandel at Navoiy Innovatsiyalar Universiteti who has a faculty interested in doing the Fulbright program. If any of you are interested in hosting, please contact Dr. Kandel at bijaykandel@googlemail.com
