Session Description

Free ticketed event
The International Society for Engineering Education, IGIP, offers an international professional development program for engineering and engineering technology educators, which upon successful completion leads to the designation of ING.PAED.IGIP and corresponding professional registration. Traditionally, the IGIP program has been offered across Europe through a network of IGIP accredited training centers and content providers. In light of continuing globalization and the lack of national professional faculty development and recognition programs in many other parts of the world, there is an increasing interest in opportunities for becoming a formally qualified and registered professional international educator. In response to this, IGIP and some of its partner organizations have planned the development and dissemination of an online version of the ING.PAED.IGIP program. The development of the shared modular online curriculum is expected to be mainly based on already existing content in accredited partner institutions that can be leveraged. Each potential content delivery partner is responsible for adapting or developing materials, the actual online delivery, support, supervision, and assistance for program participants, as well as examination, assessment, and certification.
