EARC Goes to China in 2007
In 2007, educators have two opportunities to visit China with the
EARC. Pacific Northwest alumni of the 30-hour NCTA seminars from
1999–2006 are eligible to apply for NCTA in China. Educators
from across the country can apply for the China Teacher Leadership
Project study tour. For deadlines and application
information, please visit our
