ACTFL helps promote Mandarin in Taiwan and in the U.S.

Through its agreement with the Foundation for International Cooperation in Higher Education in Taiwan (FICHET), ACTFL works with select Taiwanese universities and organizations to help Mandarin teachers and learners find opportunities to study and teach in Taiwan and the United States.

ACTFL and leadership in Taiwan have developed several resources that ACTFL members can take advantage of to further their own Mandarin study or that of their learners. Programs include study abroad and work programs in Taiwan and connections to hire Mandarin teachers from Taiwan to teach in U.S.-based programs.
