Education leaders from Armenia will participate in this International Visitor Leadership Program exchange to address accountability and reforms in the U.S. education sector. Meetings with governmental agencies, school districts, and civil society organizations will highlight efforts to augment transparency/accountability, teaching strategies for critical thinking/creative learning, and the development of effective and transparent school administrative systems of governance.

International Visitor Leadership (IVLP) Program

Each year, over 300 professionals from around the world visit Northeast Ohio through IVLP. Sponsored by the U.S. Department of State, these visitors have been identified by U.S. embassies as emerging leaders in their fields. Over 50 Nobel Laureates and 335 current or former Chiefs of State or Heads of Government are alumni of this program.

By connecting with foreign leaders we strengthen Northeast Ohio’s commercial, cultural, and educational ties with the rest of the world. For more information, contact Katie Ferman, Program Officer, at kferman@ccwa.ccwa.org or click here. To get involved as a Citizen Diplomat, click here.
