As more students and faculty identify as digital natives\, what role will technology play in shaping the future of international education? \nJoin experienced practitioners for a conversation on Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL) and Virtual Exchange (VE)\, exploring not only what these models are\, but why they are gaining renewed attention at this moment. Panelists will discuss how COIL can expand access to global learning\, the types of student outcomes emerging from these experiences\, and how virtual exchange can contribute to equity and career readiness goals.\n \n \n \n \n \n Moderator: \n\nKyle Cox\, University Relations Director\, CIS Abroad\n\n \n \n \n \n \n Presenters: \n\nDr. Daniel Nolan\, Director of COIL Programming\, University of Minnesota\nAdam Freed\, Regional Director of Academic Partnerships\, Asia-Pacific Academic\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n April 1\, 2026 at 12:00pm ET \n \n Register\n \n \n \n \n \n The Zoom link for the event will be sent to participants after they have registered.

It is the infrastructure that allows international education practitioners to grow\, adapt\, and lead effectively. Yet the field has rarely examined how it invests in its own people: what professional development actually looks like across institutions\, what the research tells us about participation\, and how to make it a strategic priority rather than a budget line item. \nThis session brings together researchers\, practitioners\, and organizational leaders for a grounded conversation on professional development in international education. Drawing on emerging research and field experience\, panelists will explore what meaningful investment in people looks like\, how institutions can move from ad hoc to strategic\, and what the evidence says about building strong\, capable global education teams.\n \n \n \n \n \n Moderator: \n\nClaudio Castaneda\, Director of Content & Programs\, DA Global Access Network\n\n \n \n \n \n \n Presenters: \n\nDr. Roopa Rawjee\, Executive Director Office of International Engagement\, Illinois State University\nDr. Lily Lopez-McGee\, Senior Director of Diplomatic Fellowships\, Howard University\nNoelle Baldwin\, Assistant Vice President for Access & Strategic Partnerships\, IES Abroad\nStacey Hansen\, Ph.D. Candidate\, Educational Policy & Leadership\, University at Albany SUNY\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n June 10\, 2026 at 11:00am ET \n \n Register URL:https://daglobal.org/event/invest-prof-dev/ CATEGORIES:Community Discussion ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://daglobal.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/conference-photo-1.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20260616T130000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20260616T134500 DTSTAMP:20260602T084641Z CREATED:20260602T083741Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260602T084641Z UID:17248-1781614800-1781617500@daglobal.org SUMMARY:Introducing DA Global Knowledge Hub - Campus Global Learning Platform for Professionals DESCRIPTION:Last month we introduced BeGlobali Campus Hub for students.
