Access to the World and Its Languages STRATEGIC GOALS Building upon its existing strengths, IFLE/OPE has developed a strategic plan that will work towards three main goals: 1. Meeting President Obama’s 202 Goal: Most Competitive Workforce in the World 2. Improving Access to and Diversity in International Education: A World Class Education for All 3. Increasing National Security and Global Competitiveness: Strengthening the Civic Fabric of Democracy

Access to the World and Its Languages The International and Foreign Language Education (IFLE) service administers eighteen discretionary grant programs under the following legislative authorities: Title VI and Title VII of the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended, and the Mutual Educational and Cultural Exchange (Fulbright-Hays) Act of 1961

Access to the World and Its Languages Effectiveness of Language Programs Instruction and learning of priority languages Number of grants awarded by IFLE for priority regions

Access to the World and Its Languages Importance of IFLE Programs The Federal investment in developing and maintaining foreign language and area expertise is a crucial part of a critical pipeline supporting U.S. national security and economic competitiveness. The Title VI and Fulbright-Hays grant programs administered by the U.S. Department of Education are the pipeline's core; their support for foreign language, area and international studies and infrastructure-building at U.S. colleges and universities ensures a steady supply of graduates and faculty with expertise in less commonly taught languages, world areas, and global trends. Without the incentive provided by this funding, basic economics would prevent many universities from offering, and students from studying, the languages and cultures of many of the world's current trouble spots.

Access to the World and Its Languages Thank you.
