International Education Week is an opportunity to celebrate the benefits of international education and exchange worldwide. This joint initiative of the U.S. Department of State and the U.S. Department of Education is part of our efforts to promote programs that prepare students for a global environment.

No International Use of College Content Requiring Login

Due to the technology interruption in February, there currently is no international access to Central Piedmont online content that requires sign-in. This means students and employees cannot access online course materials, email accounts, and other resources when outside the United States. As international travel becomes more accessible this spring and summer, students and employees need to be aware they will not be able to access Central Piedmont systems from countries other than the United States.

The MUN club represented the delegation of The Republic of El Salvador discussing current global issues in a real world context. Despite Covid-19 and the cyber attack, our students worked hard and proudly represented Central Piedmont receiving the ‘Distinguished Delegation’ award as a result of a great committee participation, remaining in character, and proper use of rules of procedure. We also want to recognize Aakriti Lakshmanan who received the “Outstanding Position Paper in Committee” award, as well as “Outstanding Delegate in Committee” award.

Join us congratulating our students: Aakriti Lakshmanan, Aiden Keith, Anthony Kabala, Ashley Braswell, Barbara Batista, Christelle Valentin, Davidson Valmyr, Gwen Thompson, Otisia Bryan, Richard Dougherty and Skyler McNeely.
