The IEPC is a comprehensive, 12-module online course providing knowledge, skills, and competencies to succeed in a global education career. Accessible asynchronously online, the programme consists of four packages: Decision Making, Compliance Care, Inclusive Programmes, and Agile Leadership. Each package includes three modules, each dedicated to the facets of the NAFSA International Education Professional Competencies™ 2.0.
“I really enjoyed the first module of the International Education Professional Certificate and found added value in the three competencies covered. I’m excited for the next module!”
“The reflection notes at the end of the sessions were incredibly helpful in identifying my weaknesses, strengths, and attitudes related to the competencies. The action plans were a well structured part of the course that allowed me to reflect deeply. I found them extremely useful.”
“The SMEs (subject matter experts) selected for the modules were very well-chosen, and the resources provided were extremely helpful. I would absolutely recommend the IEPC to colleagues, especially those working in the international office.”
