For Faculty
Faculty-Led Travel Study
Interested in chaperoning students or community members for a global learning experience? Consider whether you want to lead a for-credit study abroad experience, accompany students to complete global internships, or bring community members of all kinds on a trip through LPC Community Education. The LPC Travel Study Proposal Form will help you get a sense of what to plan for. Once you fill it out, it will go to the Vice President of Academic Services and be reviewed by the LPC Executive Team. Start early: it's best if your program is approved by the CLPCCD board one year in advance. Your dean can help you prepare a board packet.
