State-by-state, community colleges in the US are integrating global education into their curriculums. The Stanley Foundation is in its fifth year of working with community colleges to accomplish this goal. In the current phase of the project, the foundation is working at the state level to help build networks of community college leaders committed to global education.
An early step in the process is the organization of statewide global education seminars for college presidents, trustees, and faculty. At those meetings, participants develop plans for fostering international education efforts that are appropriate to their state. In several states, international education associations have been formed in the wake of the global education seminar.
