HOW YOU CAN BECOME A GLOBAL CITIZEN
Scholarship applications are now open for Sunshine Coast students to apply for the Semester 1 2022 Project Global Citizen Scholarship Program (PGC).
What is Project Global Citizen?
Project Global Citizen Scholars undertake an 8-week blended learning program that radically improves their cultural competency skills for studying, living and working across cultures as a truly global citizen.
- It creates an understanding of culturally-influenced expectations (the “unwritten rules”) of employers and how to bridge the gaps that could limit your ability to survive and thrive in your new host country.
- Over an 8-week program, we empower you with practical cross-cultural skills in relation to your academic, social and safety situation.
- Project Global Citizen is Australia’s first professional development program that focuses exclusively on leveraging culture to optimise your experience in studying, living and working as a truly global citizen.
- Project Global Citizen graduates are certified with a micro credential they can use in their CVs and LinkedIn profiles.
