Want advice from key influencers on building an international career? Join Jordyn
Hawkins-Rippie and Doug Mitchell for @InternationalExchangeAlumni’s #MentorTalks on Thursday, November 12 at 7:00 pm, for a FacebookLive session!
Doug Mitchell, Founder/Project Director of NPR's Next Generation Radio and Fulbright Commission alumnus, and Jordyn Hawkins-Rippie, a Fulbright Scholar alumnus, will join us to share tips on how you can tap into the power of exchange programs to advance your career goals. In the lead up to International Education Week, these two exchange alumni will talk about their experiences in Chile and Malaysia, respectively, and how the Fulbright program shaped their careers.
International Education Week (IEW) celebrates the importance and benefits of international education in the U.S. and around the world, and is celebrated in more than 100 countries worldwide. IEW is particularly relevant in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The importance of international education and building global relationships has never been greater.
During the program, we’ll highlight new resources for language learners (languages.state.gov) and exchange program applicants (exchanges.state.gov). We'll also discuss the speakers' experiences as Fulbright participants, how they cultivated their international opportunities, and how they applied their knowledge to advance their careers.
Come ready to ask questions and be inspired!
