GUIDE Session: Understanding Intercultural Development
Are you ready to enhance your intercultural skills? Join us for this Understanding Intercultural Development workshop. This session introduces the Intercultural Development Continuum (IDC), a framework used to understand and enhance intercultural competence and provides insight into the Intercultural Development Inventory (IDI), a tool for assessing and developing these skills.
In this session, participants will explore the IDC stages, gain an overview of the IDI, and learn practical strategies for fostering intercultural growth. Those interested may choose to take the IDI at a later time for a personalized assessment.
