Ghana with an optional stop in the Cote

partnering with the Department of

in each location. This trade mission will
be led by a senior Department of
Commerce official and the emphasis
will be on higher education programs,
community college programs and
summer, undergraduate and graduate

African countries. The mission will
include student fairs organized by
Education USA, embassy briefings, site

traveling independently to each market,
will enhance the ability of participants
to secure appropriate meetings with
productive contacts in the target
markets.
Summer programs seeking to
participate should be appropriately
accredited by an accreditation body
recognized by the U.S. Department of
Education. Community colleges,
undergraduate and graduate programs
seeking to participate should be
accredited by a recognized accreditation
body listed in Council for Higher
Education Accreditation (CHEA) or
Accrediting Council for Education and
Training (ACCET), in the Association of
Specialized and Professional
Accreditors (ASPA), or any accrediting
body recognized by the U.S. Department
of Education.
The delegation will include
representatives from approximately 25
different educational institutions.
