Global Partnerships
At the heart of internationalization are connections with institutions and organizations in other nations. Most familiar are academic partnerships focusing on student and faculty exchange and collaboration around teaching and learning, research, and development issues. Going it alone is an increasingly difficult strategy for institutions trying to cope with limited resources, intensified competition, and increasing demands for access and quality. Institutions benefit from partnering with each other, at home and abroad, and with corporations, non-governmental organizations, and community groups to enhance their quality and capacity. ACE publications in this area have focused on leadership issues and partnership strategies. ACE Resources on Partnerships
