English Access Scholarship Program
The U. S. Embassy Tashkent Public Diplomacy Section (PD) of the U. S. Department of State announces an open competition for organizations to submit applications to implement the English Access Scholarship Program.
The goal of the Access Program is to equip talented students who possess a minimal knowledge of English with effective communication and critical thinking skills through meaningful interaction, cooperative learning strategies, and real-life contexts.
Additionally, Access seeks to prepare students for conversational English language skills with native and non-native speakers of English through a variety of experiential learning activities.
Selected participants must be bright, economically disadvantaged students with a beginning level of English.
Participants should commit to enroll in classes during the full two-year program.
Students are expected to graduate with certificates of completion from the U. S. Embassy in Uzbekistan at the end of their two-year program.
Applicants may submit proposals to manage one Access location, however, preference will be given to organizations willing to manage and implement several existing Access and Access Satellite Center locations across Uzbekistan.
The selected implementer(s) must be willing to work with the existing Access and Access Satellite Center location(s) and venue(s) with the understanding that they would be responsible for recruiting participants and for ensuring those locations and venues meet the standards of the program.
Organizations with previous experience and a capacity of working with educational institutions on a national level will be given priority.
This experience should be documented in the organization’s proposal.
