Global Competency
Global competencies are “soft skills” that employers are seeking in today’s competitive job markets. Your international experience will strengthen and refine your skill sets by helping you better understanding yourself within the context of different cultures, natural environments, and academic or professional surroundings. Pre-and post- travel assessments help you evaluate your global skill sets, create goals for personal growth, and then practice your developing skills while traveling abroad. Upon your return to OSU, your global competencies will again be measured and then compared to pre-travel scores, creating a unique opportunity for reflection and future goal setting.
