Crossing Cultures with Competence (CCwC)

Our flagship Training of Trainers Program
This unique training of trainers program is designed for those who are already working with people from other cultures and who want new ideas, new materials and a new level of understanding about how to offer a top-notch cultural orientation.
This course will enable you to:
- Learn the strategies and techniques you need to offer in-depth and culture-specific cross-cultural orientations
- Add cultural skills to your knowledge base
- Supplement your existing cross-cultural training program
- Ease employees’ transition to a new country
If you are…
- A trainer who wants to add cross-cultural skills to your toolbox
- A human resources manager aiming to ease employee’ transitions to a new country and wanting to control quality and cost by keeping the training in-house
- A mental health service provider wanting a new way to promote inter- cultural understanding
- A life or professional coach looking for additional services to offer your clients
- An interculturalist who could use a ready-to-go kit to deliver cultural orientations

An educator who works with international students and scholars and their families
- Understand the roots of the cultural differences in their host country, so they can work more productively
- Recognize when they are experiencing culture shock and develop a plan to ease their own transition to a new country
- Learn about their host country’s history, government, economics, demographics and educational and social issues, so they can communicate knowledgeably with host nationals
