Programme Overview

The Fulbright Teaching Excellence and Achievement Program brings international secondary-level educators to the United States for a six-week professional learning opportunity at a host university. Participants take part in academic seminars, observe and co-teach in U.S. classrooms, and collaborate on best educational practices with educators and students at the host university and at local secondary schools. Participants engage in various civic and cultural activities in their host communities to promote mutual understanding.

Benefits

The program includes:

  • Academic seminars.
  • Observational and co-teaching opportunities in U.S. classrooms.
  • Collaboration with local educators and students on educational best practices.
  • Cultural and civic activities in the host community to foster mutual understanding.

Requirements

  • Applicants must be full-time secondary-level educators residing in one of the participating countries or territories.
  • Open to teachers in all disciplines including English as a foreign language, STEM subjects, social studies, special education, and more.
  • A bachelor’s degree or equivalent, along with demonstrable English language proficiency, is required.
  • Applicants must be available for travel to the U.S. for the six-week duration of the program.

Interview Dates and Process

Fulbright Teaching Excellence and Achievement participants are selected through an open competition. Applications are reviewed by U.S. Embassies and/or Fulbright Commissions in participating countries and nominated according to a number of evaluation criteria. Preference will be given for applicants who have not participated in another Fulbright program and/or have not had significant previous professional experience abroad in the last five years (study, teaching, research, or employment). The Fulbright Foreign Scholarship Board approves all final nominations.

In an effort to reflect the diversity of the United States and global society, the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs programs, funding, and other activities encourage the involvement of U.S. and international participants from traditionally underrepresented groups, including women, racial and ethnic minorities, and people with disabilities. Opportunities are open to people regardless of their race, color, national origin, sex, age, religion, geographic location, socioeconomic status, disability, sexual orientation, or gender identity. The Bureau is committed to fairness, equity, and inclusion.

All nominated applicants will be notified of the selection decision by their local U.S. Embassy or Fulbright Commission.
