Building a Foundation for International Education and Global Citizenship

Outbound mobility prepares students for living and working in an ever more global environment. As such, Keyano College is in the process of building the framework for our Outbound Mobility Program. The project aims to provide students with transformative experiences, which will cultivate cross-cultural sensitivity, bolster intercultural intelligence and competencies, and allows them to gain a more in-depth insight into the global forces that are reshaping the economic and political landscape. The hope is that they will understand the historical experiences that divide the world and the universal values that increasingly unite it.
