This application form is for community college faculty and administrators.
The Community College in France Bootcamps allow students to spend two weeks in France during the Summer to explore current global issues, improve their transversal skills and broaden their intellectual horizons.
The Bootcamps:
Participation for Faculty and Administrators:
The Bootcamps are also open for community college professionals! Participating in this program gives you the opportunity to familiarize yourself with the French higher education system, connect with French counterparts in the host institution or in other institutions in the area, and gain innovative ideas to implement upon your return.
We encourage you to prepare for your stay in France (contacting staff and faculty from your host establishment).
Hence, the idea is not for administrators or faculty to act as chaperones for the students, but rather to be proactive and engaging actors. Ultimately, we want the Bootcamps to facilitate the creation of new collaborations between Community Colleges and French institutions.
Please be aware that Community College in France is primarily an opportunity for students. Administrators are accepted on a limited, space-available basis. Priority will be given to those who clearly demonstrate how they can be an asset to their Community College in pursuing new partnerships.
The participation cost is $1000 including accommodations and meals.
