International Education Partnerships – Experience Abroad

At Cambrian, we believe firmly believe that ‘International partnerships provide opportunities to attract a more diverse student body, and to promote greater mobility of staff and students; these partnerships also have the potential to make an impact on curriculum development, collaborative teaching programmes and research networks’.

26 February 2013, By Suzanne Alexander (EAIE – European Association for International Education)

‘Education abroad is often a transformative experience, altering a student’s sense of self and understanding of others; the richness of the experience extends well beyond the classroom and exposure to new ideas and immersion in a new culture often result in a more nuanced understanding of the complexities of the world; Employers value the soft skills developed and enhanced through living and studying abroad, such as openness to new challenges, and skills in intercultural communication, problem-solving, and decision making’. This study also found that 82% of hiring managers from Canadian Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) believe employees who possess intercultural knowledge and an understanding of the global marketplace enhance their company’s competitiveness.
