Your Global Future

Registration for the 2021 Your Global Future college & career fair is available now!

Teachers, administrators, or other coordinators: register groups of students for remote or asynchronous viewing all at once here. Students may also register themselves individually. The deadline to register is Monday, September 13th.

Presenters & Sponsors: register here to share your organization in-person to an audience of 100-200 students, and live or asynchronous digital viewers.

For our sponsoring speakers: your organization’s financial contribution subsidizes student attendance and bus transportation to IRC programs. We currently have options for both single-panel sponsorship and participation or week-long sponsorship, with information here. Should you have any questions, please contact Matthew Hughes at mhughes@irckc.org or 816-897-6474.

• A panel with different speakers each a day for 5 days, scheduled during the school day (if you’re not observing in person, you can livestream the program or watch it later);
• Pre-planned exercises teachers can use or adapt to incorporate the program into their classroom;
• Further information from panelists on the Your Global Future webpage;
• Raffle drawings for prizes for students and teachers; and,
• Recordings of the five panels for later use, available for free after the live session.

Panel recordings will be posted on each organization’s mini-page here on the IRC website, where students will be able to access more information about the organization prior to and after the event, like company listings, links, and more.

We’d love to work with you to make sure your students are still engaged and thinking critically about the material and their own futures. By registering yourself, your class, or your student group here, you ensure you receive all news about not only how to live-stream the fair into your classroom or use it later, but also opportunities to get your students’ questions for our presenters answered live, even if they’re not in the room.

This year’s Your Global Future is designed to be as flexible and fun as possible for all involved.

To our student and educator attendees: we encourage you to attend each panel if you can! Each day our panels will cover a different international opportunity path in-person at a local host school, and via livestream. All other area schools and student groups are encouraged to participate by either watching panels that interest you live with your students, or showing panel recordings in your classroom following the event. Lesson plans will be available to help teachers get their students thinking critically about their own futures and engage with the subject matter.

To our exhibitors: any sponsorship at this year’s Your Global Future includes the opportunity to speak on a single 3-5 person panel with other members of your field, to share the unique opportunities and advice relevant to you. Additional perks are available with other sponsorship levels, like branded swag items, featured time, and more! More information can be found at registration, here.
