Ambassadors
Global Education Ambassadors
Global Education Ambassadors (GEA’s) are a select group of volunteer educators and administrators throughout the United States who play a critical role in supporting iEARN and iEARN-USA’s efforts to expand global education. These regional Ambassadors promote global education and virtual exchange, lead online project and course facilitation, conduct workshops, create resources, and organize and present in special global education initiatives and conferences throughout the year. Our GEAs have years of experience and inÂ-depth knowledge of virtual exchange, or technologyÂ-enabled, sustained, peopleÂ-to-Âpeople education programs, through project-Âbased learning.Â
