Libya
Amideast’s own MENA Scholarship Support Fund (MSSF) makes the dream of study in the United States possible for highly qualified students from underserved populations in Libya. Through this initiative, Amideast identifies students of exceptional accomplishment and promise who wish to pursue undergraduate study at an American college or university but cannot afford to do so.
This program consists of three core components and encompasses 430 hours of training delivered over 16 months: 340 hours of English language instruction, 50 hours of computer skills, and 40 hours of leadership and community service.
The Skills for Tomorrow program addresses several complementary goals through an integrated approach of specific relevance for youth. These include the following:
The Kennedy-Lugar Youth Exchange and Study (YES) program provides scholarships for high school students to study for one academic year in the United States. YES students live with a host family, attend an American high school, acquire leadership skills, and engage in activities to learn about U.S. society and values; they also help educate Americans about their home country and culture.
Are you an English teacher in the public sector, teaching at the primary or secondary or university level? Thanks to the support of the U.S. Embassy to Libya, Amideast is pleased to announce that we are currently accepting applications for a Professional Certificate in English Language Teaching (PCELT) course to be held in Tripoli this summer.
