Now that this course is done, I feel like I have grown as a teacher and a person. I learned that I have passion in areas that I had never given much thought too. I learned that I am good under pressure and I am a determined person. I have a drive to do better for myself and others.
The only long term goal I have is to retire and teach at a college in Key West, FL. I would love to live out my days doing two things I love, one is to teach and the other is to be near the ocean and beach. I will accomplish this one day!!
I would like to thank all my colleagues and Dr. Terri for guiding me through this course, I learned so much that will be with me forever.
Good Luck to everyone and CONGRATULATIONS!!!

International Organizations
The international organizations that I researched are FHI 360, Unicef and Save the Children. These organizations are all about one thing and that is helping children. The importance of these organizations amazed me. I found them all to be so wonderful and I am glad I took the time to read about them.
The Save the children organization "gives children in the US and around the world what every child deserves- A healthy start, the opportunity to learn and care when disaster strikes"(Save the Children). The job that I found I might be interested in is a Specialist in Early Childhood development. This job provides technical support to country offices, implementation and monitoring of ECD programs. The job requirements are a masters degree with 3-5 years in early childhood development, lots of travel and fluent in English and Spanish.
Unicef is another great organization. They "advocate for measures to give children the best start in life, because proper care at the youngest age forms the strongest foundation for a persons future"(UNICEF). They help children with so many issues such as hunger, aides, disaster, poverty, immunizations and many others. the job that I found would bw of interest to me is a Help desk for field level protection. I would need an advanced degree experience in child protection. The job would be to ensure child protection coordinators have access to training and technical assistance.
The Academy cor educational devolpment is an organization that "improves lives by advancing integrated locally driven solutions"(Academy for educational development) The position I would be interestes in is a Director, school and community services. This job fesigns and manages comprehensive educational reform youth development and community improvement initiatives , conducts research and evaluation for education youth and community programs
