Registration for the Global Pro Institute (GPI) is now open!
I’m a huge fan of Brooke Roberts! Have been for many years! She is a leading mind in the field of
international education and what it takes to enter and be successful in the
field of international education and meaningful travel! This is why I’m supporting and promoting The Global Pro Institute (GPI) which Brooke developed and has successfully carried
out over the past few years.
The Global Pro Institute is a
online professional development and training program for aspiring and emerging
professionals. Through six comprehensive modules with multiple video training
lessons in each, Brooke teaches you how to establish your brand, build your
body of work, and create a network of meaningful professional relationships - all
while learning from an international
education insider on
how this field and industry really work.
NOTE: This is the final LIVE round of the Global Pro Institute experience. After Friday (February 3rd), The Global Pro Institute will remain open for enrollment but the group coaching calls and other bonuses will no longer be available. So this is the last chance to get direct coaching from her in a cohort setting!
If you or someone you know is eager to begin a career in international education, the Global Pro Institute is the perfect launchpad to learn about the industry and break into the field.
You can browse the entire Global Pro Institute curriculum and enroll here.
