Join the Teaching, Learning, and Scholarship Knowledge Community (TLS KC) for an engaging cross-committee webinar focused on reimagining internationalization through collaborative degree programs between institutions. Panelists will reflect on their experiences navigating challenges and opportunities within international 2+2 and 3+1 pathway program partnerships.

This session will explore the real-world impact of these collaborative pathway programs on students, faculty, and staff, examining themes such as intercultural learning, access, and institutional power dynamics. Attendees will gain practical tools and insights for transforming cross-institutional challenges into meaningful global learning experiences.

Whether you are new to international partnership programs or seeking to strengthen existing ones, this event offers valuable guidance and a call to action to get involved with TLS initiatives.

Any questions about this event can be sent to the TLS KC feedback form.
