FULBRIGHT TEACHER EXCHANGE COMPETITION FOR 2006-2007 The Fulbright Commission in Romania is pleased to announce the annual competition for the Fulbright Teacher Exchange Program, academic year 2006/2007. The Romanian-American Fulbright Teacher Exchange Program provides opportunities for high school teachers in Romania to participate in direct exchanges of positions with colleagues from high schools in the USA.
The purpose of the Fulbright Teacher Exchange Program is to help promote mutual understanding, exchange of knowledge and lasting ties between the people of the United States and the people of other countries through educational exchange. By living and working in the cultures of another country than theirs, exchange teachers gain understanding of the similarities and differences in national cultures and international educational systems. Fulbright teacher exchanges result in continuing relationships between schools, and may benefit local communities by providing them with international resources.
