People To People Ambassador Programs Forms Education Advisory Board To Further Establish Leadership In Educational Travel

"National PTA's mission is to make every child's potential a reality," said Eric R. Hargis, Executive Director of National PTA.  "We see opportunities like the People to People Ambassador Program as a great way for young people to develop leadership skills that can last a lifetime."

The education advisory board held its first meeting on November 7, 2012 in Washington, D.C. to discuss the role that experiential learning plays in preparing students to be globally ready.  The education advisory board and the People to People Ambassador Programs management team will meet at least three times a year to analyze and innovate programming to keep People to People Ambassador Programs' curriculum in step with changes in the educational and economic landscape, and maintain a leadership position in educational experiences through student travel.
