ACT welcomes educators from US and Europe partner institutions

On October 3, ACT welcomed educators from our partner institutions across the US and Europe in an Open House event on campus.  It was a wonderful opportunity to get to know our partners better and discuss ways that we can increase collaboration between our schools for academic enrichment.  Our visitors included representatives from Rutgers University, University of Northern Iowa, Pace University, Michigan State University, Convinus University of Budapest and the Pennsylvania Center for International Exchange and Partnership (PCIEP).  The event was co-sponsored by CCIS, who provided travel grants to CCIS member institutions.  The dialogue will continue in Athens during the 3rd European Forum Conference, which will “explore how U.S. education abroad defines Europe, and how European education abroad partners define Europe to visiting U.S. students, so that students may appreciate the past, understand the present and anticipate the future of the most popular education abroad destination.”

Today, Anatolia comprises three academic divisions, offering education of the highest standards to young people as well as adults from Greece, the US and the Balkans: Anatolia Elementary School (Kindergarten - 6th Grade), Anatolia High School (Gymnasion and Lykeion High School and IBDP), and ACT - American College of Thessaloniki, which offers graduate and post-graduate programs. At the same time, CTY Greece (Center for Talented Youth) operates at Anatolia College since 2014, in collaboration with Johns Hopkins University and the Stavros Niarchos Foundation.
