Exchange Visitor Program-Teachers
Document Number: 2013-10400
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2013-05-02
Agency: Department of State
The Department is amending existing regulations governing the teacher category of the Exchange Visitor Program. The proposed amendments clarify the duration of program participation; amend eligibility requirements with respect to verifying English proficiency; and reduce the required teaching or related experience from three years to the equivalent of two years full-time teaching experience; introduce a required cultural component; and propose the implementation of a two- year bar for repeat participation to foster the purpose of the Mutual Educational and Cultural Exchange Act of 1961, (``Fulbright-Hays Act''). These proposed changes will enhance the integrity and programmatic effectiveness of the teacher category.
