"CEA's organizational strengths, marketing capacities and student responsiveness provide a good complement to the academic strengths of UNH. We are especially excited about the future for the GlobalCampus network, where our active partnership is focused."

CEA Global Education partners with university and college faculty to ensure our course offerings meet the highest academic standards and expectations. We outline course objectives and match measurable assessments to those objectives. CEA also relies on student course evaluations and frequent self assessments to continually focus on academic improvements and the evolving needs of educators.
Experiential Learning
CEA places great value in providing students with opportunities for close and meaningful encounters with another culture. We intentionally design learning environments that bring faculty and students face-to-face with monuments, museums and historical sites, as well as places of artistic or local contemporary significance.
Our coursework takes students outside the classroom and into the “living classroom” of the Global Campus city, where they see, learn and experience international educational objectives. Through experiential learning, students interact more closely with their environment, internalizing their understanding of the foreign culture in which they are immersed.
As a result, they return to their home campuses more capable of adding diversity and breadth of thought to their educational environment.
Curriculum Integration
CEA Global Campuses invite curriculum integration between courses taught at the Global Campus and those taught through Global University Partners abroad. The wider choice of coursework benefits students from different levels, interests and disciplines by enabling them to create a class schedule that meets their needs.
University of Record
CEA partners with the University of New Haven in West Haven, Conn., as its University of Record for all CEA Global Campus programs. As such, the University sets the principal academic policies for all CEA programs and oversees faculty appointments, curriculum and academic matters. Their faculty and administration frequently visit CEA sites worldwide and CEA provides New Haven its evaluations and self assessments in order to meet and exceed their high standards.
Self-Study
CEA’s Global Campuses are subjected to rigorous academic evaluation through the preparation of an extensive self-study report and a site visit by a team of University of New Haven faculty and staff. This evaluation, performed on a three-year cycle, is measured by the Standards of Good Practice approved by the Forum on Education Abroad, the leader in study abroad quality assessment.
As a result,
Educators, faculty leadership and administrators can be assured that CEA is providing students the highest quality academic programs abroad. Their students can rest easy that their transcripts will be issued by an accredited institution and their credits will transfer smoothly back home upon their return to the United States.
