Professional Development

Educators play a critical role in helping students develop their global skills and knowledge. Supporting their work in delivering intercultural learning is a core part of our program offering. We provide tools and resources that enable educators to create transformative and engaging learning experiences for their students.

However, this is often not enough. To effectively guide their students, educators need to feel confident in their own global competence and intercultural understanding. We support this growth through introductory and advanced learning opportunities that build a solid foundation for professional practice.

Our professional development programs are also open to individuals outside the education sector—anyone looking to strengthen their intercultural skills for work, leadership, or collaboration in diverse environments.

One of our flagship offerings is the Global Competence Certificate, a comprehensive program that builds the knowledge, skills, and mindset needed to thrive in culturally diverse contexts.

“Did you know that diversity enhances innovation, but only if team members feel valued and are able to bring their unique selves to the table? Recently, I had the good fortune of attending Value Learning’s introduction to Diversity, Inclusion and Equity Workshop during which we unpacked this concept. During a 60-minute free webinar, professionals from industry, private enterprise and education examined the many ways diversity manifests itself in our respective workplaces. We then explored the concept of belonging and possible barriers to building a truly cohesive team. It was great to be amongst like-minded people who want to learn more and I cannot wait to join the next round of Value Learning’s 4-week Diversity, Equity and Inclusion in the Workplace Course. I look forward to building my self-awareness, exploring my unconscious biases and becoming an effective ally.”

“This program is life changing. It certainly made me realize that we have so much more in common than we do different. A lot of these modules challenged me, first by looking at myself, looking at the mirror, and working outward from there. It makes me more globally competent and more aware of my surroundings. I’m really, really happy that I decided to join.”
