About
SIT
The School for International Training (SIT), located in Brattleboro, Vermont
for 33 years has been offering master degree programs in language teacher
education and intercultural management. It also offers more than fifty
undergraduate study abroad programs. The mission of the school is to enable
participants to develop the skills, knowledge, attitudes and awareness
needed to contribute effectively to global understanding. SIT is well-known
nationally and internationally for its work in language teacher education
and has been training learner-oriented, culturally sensitive and humanistic
language teachers in their Master of Arts in TESOL course for over thirty
years. It has prepared over 2000 active professionals who are working
in the field today making significant contributions as classroom teachers,
administrators or consultants throughout the US and in over 70 countries
around the world. Among the earliest proponents of experiential education,
SIT's program provides teachers with the knowledge to achieve excellence
in their classroom practice and to be advocates for intercultural understanding.
These same elements provided the basis for the design of the four-week
certificate program.
The School
for International Training is accredited by the New England Association
of Schools and Colleges, Inc., a non-governmental, nationally recognized
organization.
