The Fulbright Teachers for Global Classrooms Program (Fulbright TGC) is a year-long professional development opportunity for U.S. elementary, middle, and high school teachers to develop skills that will help them prepare students for a competitive global economy. Fulbright TGC equips teachers to bring an international perspective to their schools through targeted training, experience abroad, and global collaboration.
Program Activities

Global Education Symposium in Washington, D.C.: Fulbright TGC participants, together with their school administrators, attend an in-person professional development workshop to build networks, collaborate, and develop strategies to enhance world learning.
Capstone Project: Fulbright TGC fellows create a Global Education Guide that serves as a resource for their local community to build global awareness and mutual understanding.
