January 11 Deadline – PCC/CIEE International Faculty Development Seminars

Photos and Story by

We had such a positive response from the returning participants who

participated in the 2007 CIEE seminar on the quality of the seminars

and how they are incorporating the experience into their courses and

departments.

We hope that you had a chance to attend some of the fine presentations

by the returning faculty and administrators about their Council on

International Educational Exchange (CIEE) International Faculty

Development Seminar (IFDS) (www.ciee.org) during the recent PCC fifth

annual International Education Week.

We anticipate that the faculty course syllabi incorporating the

international modules will be available on the www.pcc.edu/international by spring term 2008 as a resource.

Shortly, the Grants Office will submit a Title VIA -Business and International Education

grant proposal to the Department of Education. Thanks to all

the CIEE participants and other PCC staff who contributed to this

proposal and, hopefully, we will hear good news in spring.

We are very happy to announce that the Office of International

Education will send a group of 15 PCC staff from the FT bargaining

unit, PT faculty with assignment rights and Management to attend an

overseas CIEE International Faculty Development Seminar during the

summer of 2008. The deadline for submission is Friday, January 11. We

will notify all applicants of the selected participants the week of

January 28.

The PCC/CIEE application is available at the https://www.pcc.edu/international

website under the section on Faculty and Staff Development.
