Press Release: For Immediate Release
___ College Introduces Accessible, Affordable, and Meaningful International Education for a
Competitive Global Workforce:
In partnership with Phi Theta Kappa (the community college honors society), ___ College will offer
International Honors Certificates (IHC) online courses from UCLA Anderson, University of
Johannesburg, University of South Carolina, and the Beijing Language and Culture University.
The need for a globally prepared workforce is vital for regional economic development. In 2015,
companies invest in regions based on the talent of the globally competitive workforce. According to

yet less than 2% of community college students travel abroad, according to a recent study from
Michigan State University.
“Our students must better understand global perspectives, how to work with people of different
cultures, and how to thrive in international markets. Sending community college students all over
the world to gain these necessary perspectives and skills is not practical. That is why ___ College has
partnered with Phi Theta Kappa to bring the top global universities to our students through a
technology enhanced solution.” Dr. ___ , ____ College
“Phi Theta Kappa has designed a cost effective solution to help community colleges increase access
to international programs. Additionally, we have included a capstone leadership experience that
helps more students apply for travel abroad scholarships. The combination of affordable and
practical online access and helping students traveling abroad will position more community college
students for a competitive global marketplace and builds on our mission of global leadership,
service, and fellowship.” Lynn Tincher-Ladner, Acting Executive Director, Phi Theta Kappa.
