SUSI FOR SECONDARY EDUCATORS NOTICE OF STUDY OPPORTUNITY, CLOSES 01/05/2026
The Public Diplomacy Section of the United States Embassy in Cameroon announces an open competition to recruit experienced secondary school educators to participate in the Study of the U.S. Institutes (SUSI) for Secondary Educators. The SUSIs for Secondary Educators will take place over the course of five weeks between late May and early June 2026.
The overall program goals are to strengthen curricula; provide educators and administrators with resources to teach about the United States in secondary schools and other academic institutions upon their return home; and ensure that the United States is the preferred partner for educational exchanges and training opportunities. Prospective applicants are encouraged to visit http://exchanges.state.gov/susi to obtain general information about the Institutes.
Program description
The Study of the U.S. Institutes for Secondary Educators (SUSIs) will provide experienced secondary school educators (including teachers, administrators, teacher trainers, curriculum developers, textbook writers, Ministry of Education officials, and others) with a deeper understanding of U.S. society and institutions, U.S. history, and American excellence, informing and enhancing teaching about the United States. The Institutes focus on providing content and materials for participants to develop curricula about the United States, including key readings on American historical documents and visiting U.S. historical and natural landmarks celebrating America’s great legacies.
Two of the Institutes are tailored for secondary school teachers. The third Institute is tailored for experienced administrators, including teacher trainers, curriculum developers, textbook writers, Ministry of Education officials, and others. Please note that the Institutes focus on content and materials about the United States, rather than teaching methods and pedagogy.
The four-week academic residencies will take place at U.S. educational institutions and will consist of a series of lectures, panels, seminar discussions, readings, workshops, site visits, meetings with practitioners in the field, and cultural activities. The academic field experience will complement the residency and take participants to a different region of the United States.
The program provides secondary educators with resources to teach American history upon their return home, promoting a deeper understanding of America’s founding principles, history, and achievements. Participants will learn from content related to patriotic education; key readings such as the Gettysburg Address and the American Constitution; and visiting U.S. historical and natural landmarks celebrating America’s great legacies. The program will offer multiple opportunities for follow-on engagement.
Candidate description and qualifications:
Ideal candidates come from home institutions seeking to introduce aspects of U.S. studies into their curricula, develop new courses in the Institute subject, enhance and update existing courses on the United States, or offer specialized seminars/workshops for professionals in U.S. studies areas related to the program theme. While the nominees’ scholarly and professional credentials are an important consideration, the potential impact and multiplier effect from their participation in the Institute is equally important. Ideal candidates will seek to learn about U.S. studies, with an understanding that pedagogy/teaching methods is not the focus of the program. Candidates should be mid-career, typically between the ages of 30-50, highly motivated, experienced secondary school teachers and administrators.
Candidates must demonstrate English language fluency. Institutes are rigorous and demanding programs. Participants will be expected to read and comprehend substantial reading assignments in English and to fully and actively participate in all seminar and panel discussions.
Submitting Candidatures:
Interested applicants must submit in English a curriculum vitae and a statement/personal essay of up to 500 words conveying why the applicant is interested in participating in the selected Institute, what s/he expects to gain from the experience, what s/he will bring to the program, and how s/he will leverage the experience to achieve any of these other potential outcomes: create new course
- create new degree program
- school/university curriculum redesign
- national curriculum redesign
