Global School Alliance and Skills Builder Global are pleased to invite you to an online session to showcase opportunities for essential skill development and purposeful international collaboration.
Both organisations share a common belief: preparing young people for the future requires more than aspiration. It requires structure.
Join us on Thursday 26th March at 4pm (UK time) for a co-hosted webinar exploring how to combine skill development with meaningful international impact.
Skills Builder Global supports schools and colleges globally to develop a rigorous, evidence-informed strategy for developing essential skills. Global School Alliance works with schools to establish structured, sustained international partnerships aligned with curriculum and long-term strategy.
Together we offer joint approaches that will enable you to develop essential skills with intention and apply them within meaningful global contexts.
From Framework to ApplicationThrough this alignment:
- Students develop essential skills like Communication, Teamwork, Leadership and Problem-Solving through the Skills Builder Universal Framework.
- Those skills are applied within Global Connections — structured, themed international collaborations designed to move schools beyond one-off projects.
- Educators gain expertise in teaching essential skills and confidence in facilitating purposeful global projects.
- School leaders can align personal development, global strategy and curriculum priorities within a coherent pathway.
Strengthening What Schools Are Already BuildingMany schools are already investing in essential skills. Many are already committed to global education. The opportunity lies in bringing these strands together.
By aligning skill progression with structured international collaboration, schools create:
- Deeper student engagement
- Clearer evidence of competency development
- Stronger cultural understanding
- Greater staff confidence in delivery
- A more embedded global strategy
This reflects Global School Alliance’s commitment to sustained, purposeful international engagement and Skills Builder’s focus on rigorous and measurable essential skill development.
A Shared InvitationTo introduce this alignment, Global School Alliance and Skills Builder Global will host a joint webinar for their respective school communities.
The session will explore:
- How essential skills and global collaboration reinforce one another
- How the Global Connections Programme provides a practical application platform for the essential Skills Builder framework
- How educators can apply for the funded Global Accelerator Programme
- How schools can implement both programmes in a manageable, strategically aligned way
This is an invitation to globally minded educators who want to develop skills and apply them to a global context.
Together, Skills Builder Global Partnership and Global School Alliance are supporting schools to ensure that essential skills are not developed in isolation but exercised through meaningful international collaboration.
