Do you want to get to the next level with global literature? Are you interested in adding a Words Without Borders certification to your résumé? This July, join us for our second annual train-the-trainer program, designed to prepare secondary and college-level educators to teach colleagues about global literature.
This virtual program will take place over four sessions from 3–4:30pm ET on July 22, 24, 29, and 31.
Thanks to the support of the Whiting Foundation, this course will be entirely FREE for participants. Upon successful completion, participants will be equipped to facilitate training sessions in global literature and will receive a certificate from Words Without Borders.
"This was one of the best organized and run PDs I've ever been in. On top of that, being surrounded by colleagues who are excited about the idea of innovating in our pedagogy and materials is rejuvenating. Every educator would be lucky to take this course." —A member of our 2024 train-the-trainer cohort
