INSIDE DOUGLAS COLLEGE / FEBRUARY 6, 1990

 

 

 

Why are educators in
international development?

There are many different approaches to international development and
international education. A workshop to discuss and explore some of these
models will be held at the British Columbia Institute of Technology on
FEBRUARY 15 - 16.

College board members, CEO’s and senior administrators are invited to
attend.

Different perspectives of international development will be presented and
the following questions clarified: How can international involvement benefit
your college or institute? What options exist for the small and larger
institute? What does it mean to “internationalize your college/institute?”
How can the ACCC help your institution to focus on specific areas of interest?
Are your institution’s strengths marketable overseas? How can you
capitalize on these strengths? How can you identify international
opportunities?

Nejat Gorica, facilitator of the workshop, has extensive international
development experience. During his twenty years in the Canadian college
system, he has held positions as International Student Advisor, Teaching
Master and Counsellor. His early work, in the 1970s, around the Canadian
ethnocultural programming resulted in the formation of councils and
organizations to support the continuation of this program area. He is
currently ACCC’s Regional Director for the Asia & Middle East Division. His
responsibilities specifically apply to this region with project involvement in
Southeast Asia, China, the Middle East, South Pacific and the India
sub-continent.

REGISTRATION FEE: $125.00
