NEW PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES!

The Center for Teaching International Relations is committed to providing, content-rich, international professional development opportunities for K-12 educators. Browse below to discover what's new and exciting for CTIR professional development...

The World Affairs Challenge this year is built around the UN Millennium Development Goals (MDGs).  We will continue to provide professional development opportunities that will give you the appropriate educational information and context to succeed in the classroom.  But you don't need to be a WAC participant to enjoy these opportunities to grow as international educators.  Here are some great events coming up:
