Topic: New Directions in Education Abroad: Talking Gen Z, Diversity & Inclusion, and Career Readiness

“New Directions in Education Abroad” is an on-going collaboration started by International Studies Abroad by WorldStrides, ViaTRM, and Teens of Color Abroad (TOCA). We first delivered this workshop for the NYC Big Apple International Education community and are excited to engage with Boston colleagues!

Each presenter will deliver brief TED-style talks around GenZ, Diversity and Inclusion, Marketing and Communications, and Career Readiness. After the presentations, participants will break into smaller groups and have an opportunity to dive deeper into each subject area, with the presenter facilitating. We will close the workshop with a wider group discussion to unpack the morning, pose questions/challenges/affirmations and offer additional thoughts for “New Directions in Education Abroad”.

Sara Dart: Associate VP, University Partnerships at ISA

Micaela Mathre: Director of Marketing & Client Experience at ViaTRM
