The Franco-American Teachers-in-Training Institute (FATITI) is an international teacher exchange program designed to explore the evolution of education's best practices, social and education policy and the political institutions of schooling from a comparative lens. It is funded by the U.S. Department of State in collaboration with the Franco-American Commission for Educational Exchange (Fulbright Commission) and the French Ministry of Education. French and American teachers-in-training participate in a seminar examining history, language, culture, education and politics, followed by a teaching practicum.
