This project offers a holistic and inclusive approach to student mobility through combining virtual and physical models with comprehensive intercultural education. The main goal is cultivating a sense of global connections through expanding mobility access across disciplines and increasing student participation, especially target groups. Following inspiring outcomes of two COIL pilots in W2021, Sheridan proposes a) introducing 8 new COIL offerings, b) developing a student COIL support portal to complement the Faculty training module developed through the CICan 2020 grant; c) introducing 4 new physical mobility opportunities, d) building comprehensive intercultural training and wraparound supports e) updating mobility/risk management protocols/policies.
