Access program
The English Access Microscholarship Program empowers non-elite, 14-18 year old students with the opportunity to study English, gain an appreciation for American culture and democratic values, increase their ability to participate successfully in the socio-economic development of their countries, and improve their chances of participating in future U.S. exchange and study programs. The Program is a high profile, public diplomacy initiative that contributes to education and mutual understanding with host countries.
In India so far approximately 1000 students have benefited from these programs. Centers located in Delhi, Chennai, Ahmadabad, Kolkata, Jammu, Tiruvananthapuram, Aligarh and Aurangabad have trained teachers who use current methodologies of task-based, skills-oriented, learner-centered classrooms to emphasize active learning.
