Applications for Summer 2013 Educator Cross-Cultural Immersion will be accepted until February 22, 2013.

The ECCI program accepts applications from 3-12th grade teachers from Anchorage, Fairbanks, and Mat-Su school districts. Additionally, under the Take Wing Alska project, we are now accepting applications from educators at UAA and Alaska Job Corps.

This program offers a unique opportunity to learn, work and play at an Alaska Native summer culture camp. The camp experience gives teachers insights into Alaska Native culture, ways of teaching, learning and living.

Participate in Alaska Native culture to better inform your teaching and support your students.
