Intercultural Education and Training

International House has been a nexus of international learning since 1930.  In 2009, under the leadership of our Board and Ambassador Martin Brennan, and at the urging of alumni and friends worldwide who appreciate I-House’s expertise in fostering intercultural and leadership skills, education and training initiatives were formalized. 


These workshops and classes serve residents, campus, and the local community, and were recently extended to the corporate sector with an inaugural corporate training at Google in Spring, 2011.    


Curricula developed with a multicultural team of experts including I-House alumni, residents, and staff as well as a broad range of intercultural researchers and trainers from around the world, courses emphasize principals of intercultural literacy, self-awareness, and practical tools for recognizing and bridging cultural divides.
