2012 CIBER Overseas Programs: Faculty Development in International Business
The Centers for International Business Education and Research (CIBERs) were created by Congress under the Omnibus Trade and Competitiveness Act of 1988 to increase and promote the nation's capacity for international understanding and competitiveness. Administered by the U.S. Department of Education under Title VI, Part B of the Higher Education Act of 1965, the CIBER network links the manpower and technological needs of the United States business community with the international education, language training, and research capacities of universities across the country. The 33 CIBERs serve as regional and national resources to business people, students, and teachers at all levels. This grant program adheres to the Education Department General Administrative Regulations (EDGAR) Title 34, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Parts 74-86 and 97-99.
[More]I had the most amazing time. I loved all of the people that went on the program. I highly respect the program directors and feel that they did a great job in not only teaching us but also building relationships with us and caring for us. They worked so hard to put together a great program and even when plans didn't go as smooth as desired they were always optimistic and worked things out smoothly. The business visits were great, the cultural visits awesome, and just overall one of the best things I have ever done!
