New application cycle for the Teachers for Global Classrooms Program!

We at IREX are excited to announce a new application cycle for the Teachers for Global Classrooms Program! (This is the program Laura Davis e-mailed about earlier.) The application is now available online and will be open until March 4th, 2013 at 11:59pm Eastern Time.

TGC is a professional development opportunity for U.S. secondary teachers aimed at globalizing teaching and learning in their classrooms and schools.  The program includes an 8-week online course, two Global Education Symposia in Washington, DC, and a two- or three-week international field experience in a participating country.  Participants are selected through a national, open competition.  TGC is funded by the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs of the U.S. Department of State and is implemented by IREX.

For more information about the TGC program and access to the online application, please follow this link: www.irex.org/tgc The direct link for the online application is: https://oas.irex.org/tgc

We hope you will share this information out with teachers in your professional networks.  If you or any of your colleagues have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact tgc@irex.org.
