PROGRAM ANNOUNCEMENT: The Government of the United States of America is pleased to announce the International Educators Program (IEP)
The International Educators Program is a new program of the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs of the U.S. Department of State, and is administered by IREX (the International Research & Exchanges Board), a Washington, DC based nonprofit organization. IEP will provide 56 teachers from the Near East, South Asia, and Southeast Asia with unique opportunities to develop expertise in their subject areas, enhance their teaching skills and increase their knowledge about the United States. The program will consist of a semester-long academic program at a U.S. university, including coursework and intensive training in teaching methodologies, curriculum writing, teaching strategies for their home environment, educational leadership, as well as the use of computers for Internet, word processing and as tools for teaching. The semester-long program, which will commence in January 2007 and conclude in June 2007, will also include an 8-week internship at a secondary school to
engage participants actively with the American teachers and students. Trips to U.S. cultural sites and academic support will be provided for participants throughout the program.
The fellowship provides J-1 visa support, round-trip airfare from the participant's home city to and within the U.S., academic program fees, accident and sickness insurance, housing (generally shared with other program participants), daily allowance for meals and incidentals, transportation allowance for travel to school internship (if necessary), one laptop computer; and a book/ professional development allowance.
