Global Director Training prepares both veteran and new Global Program directors alike to lead immersive international short-term programs. Participants are provided with tools, resources, and perspectives to effectively lead a team and partner with IFES. Join us in Mexico City, for Global Directors Training.
Remember that any time an InterVarsity staff or volunteer travels with a student or group of students outside of the United States, it is considered a Global Program. Training is required if you are a first-time director and are leading a program outside the United States, especially if it is more than two weeks long.
Some of the topics covered include:
- Spiritual preparation
- Designing a program
- Apologetic for global engagement
- Team dynamics
- Orientation and debriefing for your students
- Student application, selection, and fundraising
- Budgets and finances
- Risk and crisis management
Global Director Training will take place Tuesday, January 30th through Saturday, February 3rd, 2024 in Mexico City. Costs are approximately $350 plus airfare. Email the Global Programs office with any questions. Plan to arrive before 3:00 pm on January 31st and leave after 2:00 pm on February 4th. Please make sure you have a valid passport prior to booking your travel.
Register is due by November 15th.
