Abstract (English): To examine the interaction between educators’ intercultural development and students’ intercultural growth, we studied the impact of CIEE’s Intercultural Communication and Leadership (ICL) course. Our results indicate that Educator, Country, Gender, and Field had impacts on students’ intercultural gains (Gibson et al., 2023); the focus of this article is solely on educators’ perceptions of the factors that shape their ability to foster student intercultural learning. Using the AAC&U’s (2009) Intercultural Knowledge and Competence VALUE Rubric to frame the 22 educator interview responses, our study indicates the tangible results of formally and informally supported educators’ intercultural professional development. As a result of educators’ intentional intercultural development, they leverage skilled pedagogical techniques to effectively bridge with students to enhance their intercultural learning. Therefore, we argue for the investment, expansion, and mentorship of faculty development, particularly with regards to educator’s own intercultural growth, in order to activate and expand students’ learning while studying abroad.

Abstract (Spanish): Para examinar la interacción entre el desarrollo intercultural del profesorado y el avance cultural estudiantil nosotros estudiamos el impacto del curso, “Intercultural Communication and Leadership”, que enseña el programa CIEE. Nuestros resultados indican que el profesor, el país, el género y la disciplina tiene un impacto en los avances interculturales de los estudiantes que estudian en el extranjero (Gibson et al., 2023); este artículo se enfoca únicamente en las percepciones de los factores que les ayuda a los maestros a fomentar el aprendizaje intercultural de los estudiantes. Entrevistamos a 22 educadores y usamos a la rúbrica “Intercultural Knowledge and Competence VALUE” (2009) de AAC&U para interpretar las entrevistas. Nuestro estudio indica que lo más significativo, para ellos, es el desarrollo profesional que se enfoca en su propio desarrollo intercultural. Con esta formación el profesorado podía usar y aplicar pedagogías para conectar con los estudiantes que efectivamente avanzaban las habilidades interculturales de los estudiantes. A causa de tal, nosotros argüimos que la inversión, expansión y mentoría del profesorado, enfocado en su propio desarrollo intercultural, es necesaria para fomentar las capacidades interculturales de los estudiantes mientras estudian en el extranjero.
