Preserving the Legacy: Leveraging Partnerships to Sustain Historic Faculty-led Programs

Wednesday, November 13, 2024
11:00 AM – 11:50 AM EST
Location: CITY TERRACE 4
Presentation Description:

Amid ever-changing higher education policies, faculty turnover, limited staff resources, and increasing need for risk management, it’s important to continue to offer students a tailored study abroad opportunity. But can schools do this on their own?

 

In this session, attendees will learn how collaboration between institutions and experiential learning providers help preserve the legacy of faculty programs while both eliminating logistical obstacles and ensuring student engagement, health & safety.

 

Learning Objectives:

  • Attendees will be able to prepare for institutional policy shifts while ensuring the longevity and legacy of faculty-led programs.
  • Attendees will be able to articulate the benefits of using on-site support services in addition to their own institutional staff and resources to lower or eliminate logistical obstacles.
  • Attendees will leave with an introductory knowledge for how they may utilize various services offered by other institutions or ed abroad providers to enhance their own approach to faculty-led programming.
