Gateway Global Learning’s professionals have extensive experience in several areas including:
Global Reach – Marshal our global contacts in higher education, government, industry, and the nonprofit sectors on several continents to design and implement exemplary international-oriented immersion and experiential programs. To date, many of our programs focusing on international issues such as trade, democratization, human rights, climate change, disaster response, and international nonprofit management were delivered in Washington, DC, which remains a hub for international policy, diplomacy, and multi-lateral efforts aimed to address pressing international issues.
Comprehensive Program Service – Assist schools and organizations in all facets of coordination, program content and delivery. Depending on the needs of our clients, we draw on our experiences in front-end program needs including design and delivery of online content and instruction, preparatory workshops and orientations, and student/faculty goal setting. In addition to instructional delivery capabilities, we offer travel and lodging coordination, budgeting, and post-program follow-on services such as internship exploration and continued student professional networking.
