Global Competency Certificate Program

According to the National Education Association (NEA), “global competence refers to the acquisition of in-depth knowledge and understanding of international issues, an appreciation of and ability to learn and work with people from diverse linguistic and cultural backgrounds, proficiency in a foreign language, and skills to function productively in an interdependent world community”.  This includes:

                                               i.     International awareness

                                             ii.     Appreciation of cultural diversity

                                            iii.     Proficiency in foreign languages

                                            iv.     Competitive skills

The Bromfield School’s Global Competency Certificate aims to encourage students to foster these skills in an immersive and collaborative experience.

The Global Competency Certificate Program accepts applications from Freshman and Sophomores during the spring course selection period.
