Wayfinder Micro-credential by WorldStrides

The Wayfinder is earned by a select group of education abroad program participants studying at host sites run by ISA and/or TEAN, the higher education study abroad divisions of WorldStrides. Earners of the Wayfinder have demonstrated that they are adventurous, curious and highly engaged with the Discovery Model co-curriculum of their host site. To earn this accolade, students actively participated in program activities, signed up for optional cultural excursions and leaned into historical, sociopolitical and environmental knowledge of the host country during guided tours. After in-person activities, they logged into Schoology, WorldStrides' app-enhanced LMS, to show what they learned via various quizzes, group discussions, and reflection exercises. WorldStrides certifies that the holder is knowledgeable about the customs, history, politics and environment at least one host country, city and region!
