It has never been more important for educators and other professionals engaged in the field of education to be globally conscious and equipped to instill global competency in their own students. Through engagement with international students, institutional partnerships, on-campus international programming, study abroad opportunities for both graduate and undergraduate students, and research with visiting scholars, we prepare globally conscious citizens, teachers, administrators, researchers, and policymakers who are ready to confront the global challenges and embrace the worldwide possibilities of our time.
Join us for an engaging online information session about the Trauma-Informed Education Programs offered through the College of Education at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. These programs are designed to deepen your understanding of trauma and trauma-informed practices in educational settings — whether you are considering graduate study or professional development.
