\"0000-00-00<\/a>General Information<\/h1>\n

The Educational Enrichment Program (EEP) is a specific program that offers exceptional insights into the German educational system. Participants will be taken to various school types, workshops and seminars, and will also take part in evening receptions with Berlin politicians and enjoy other social gatherings. The government of Berlin pays for participant\u2019s instruction, food, lodging and transportation in Berlin. School districts or participants are responsible for their transportation to Germany.<\/p>\n

\"0000-00-00<\/a>For each German teacher the district employs, one teacher or administrator may be selected for this program in Germany. Participants gain an in-depth knowledge of the German educational system and vocational training. The participants in the EEP, who must be US citizens by birth, may serve as \u201cbuddy teachers\u201d for the new German teachers arriving in the districts in July and August of the same year. Dual citizens are not eligible to participate in EEP.<\/p>\n

Since 1987 EEP was able to provide training almost 800 American teachers, administrators and education policy-makers from 15 different US states. Over the program\u2019s lifetime, participants have come from more than 100 American school districts.<\/p>\n

EEP Participants‘ Comments<\/h1>\n

\u201cIt is essential for us to become partners in education, if we are going to be able to compete in the future world markets successfully.\u00a0 The EEP fully serves this purpose.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\"DSC_1772\"\u201cThe EEP was most helpful in broadening my global perspective.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

„Coming on this trip with fellow educators and meeting American and German teachers was so incredibly valuable. This process of relationship building is so exceptional and so needed.“<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cIt was no \u2018fun trip\u2019, it was a great, lasting and important experience in my life.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cThe program has changed my way of thinking, it has changed me.\u00a0 The need for intercultural cooperation and the exchange of ideas as a fundamental principle of school education were seen as the main result.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cI judge the Berlin experience to have been of significant importance and an enrichment for my career.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cIt provided professional growth, gave me many new insights, I am proud to have made new friends.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cI received numerous and very special professional and personal benefits from STEP.\u201d\"0000-00-00<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cI believe that your choice of guest lecturers contributed greatly to our improved understanding of the German way of life.\u00a0 Each speaker seemed to be an expert in his\/her topic.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201eParticipating in the summer EEP has forever changed my perceptions about Germany, how our countries interact with each other and the world and my professional and personal life. I am more curious and ready to learn.“<\/em><\/p>\n
