PD 724 – Developing Cultural Competence Co-curricular Student Certificate offered by NC State Global Training Initiative

The Developing Cultural Competence (DCC) program aims to improve students’ cultural competence and cross-cultural awareness by facilitating virtual exchanges among participants.

The virtual training program consists of self-paced individual learning modules and four 90-minute facilitated meetings where NC State students join students from partner institutions across the world in facilitated online discussions, cultural exchanges and apply the knowledge and skills they learned in the modules.
