CAORC recognizes the immediate and growing need for US faculty and administrators at community colleges to provide a global perspective to their students. CAORC offers fully-funded overseas seminars, which were first launched in 2017, that allow these educators to gain the requisite first-hand experience needed to develop and improve international teaching at their institutions.

In today’s interconnected world, preparing students for success requires equipping them with the skills and perspectives needed to thrive in a global workforce. The FLITE program empowers faculty and administrators at U.S. colleges and universities with the knowledge, resources, and professional networks to embed international education into their institutions and cultivate globally-minded graduates.

CAORC offers two fellowship programs. The Multi-Country Research Fellowship has been running since 1993 and supports transnational research in the humanities, social sciences, and natural sciences for scholars with a PhD or terminal degree as well as doctoral candidates who are 'all but dissertation'. The CAORC-NEH Research Fellowship, first launched in 2016, supports advanced research in the humanities in one country with a participating Overseas Research Center as a base for scholars with a PhD or terminal degree.
