CONAHEC advises and connects institutions interested in establishing or strengthening academic collaborative programs within the North American region and beyond. 19th North American Higher Education Conference Join us to share your efforts to translate internationalization strategies into real world initiatives and to learn about what others are doing to achieve their internationalization objectives. Visit the conference website today! North American Center for Collaborative Development Announced at NALS During the 2016 North American Leaders Summit, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, President Barack Obama and President Enrique Peña Nieto announced the creation of the North American Center for Collaborative Development (NACCD), a CONAHEC initiative, in collaboration with the three governments of North America.  Among other activities, CONAHEC organized three high level international conferences: North American Academic Partnerships Database The United States Embassy in Mexico City is working with the Consortium for North American Higher Education Collaboration (CONAHEC) to improve accounting and tracking of the hundreds of partnerships that exist among higher education institutions in Mexico, Canada, and the United States. We seek your help in documenting your institution’s academic partnerships with Mexican and Canadian universities. CONAHEC s Staff Faculty Mobility Programs CONAHEC's Short Term Faculty Exchange Program permits institutions to engage faculty members in leading institutional internationalization through practical collaboration with international partners. CONAHEC s Professional Experiences for Students CONAHEC’s Service Learning Exchange Option (SLEO) is an opportunity for students to acquire international experience and awareness through experiential learning involving hands on projects within a local community partnership. Examples include a community service program in a rural community, an internship in a local newspaper, or participation on a multidisciplinary team conducting health education clinics in marginalized neighborhoods.  CONAHEC s Mobility Incubator Program CONAHEC's Mobility Incubator Program seeks to deepen interinstitutional relationships between our members and their international partners by organizing targeted meetings among the right people to explore potential partnerships. CONAHEC s Student Exchange Program CONAHEC's Student Exchange Program is designed for both undergraduate and graduate students, including students at the doctoral level. The program covers all academic disciplines as well as options for students interested in academic coursework and on-the-job training and/or experiential education abroad.
