The ITC is a dynamic international living and learning community, made up of students from 20 countries on five continents. Students are exposed to many different cultures and educational systems, while studying in English, and living in a safe and comfortable environment.
The Christian residential community helps students grow in their faith while participating in discipleship and recreational activities with other Christian students. ITC Students are encouraged to develop a ?missionary mindset? as they prepare themselves for service as educators who ?teach Christianly? in schools around the world.

Our goal is to produce students who contribute effectively to the educational development and enterprise in their local countries, to the glory of God and as a blessing to the nations through the gospel of Jesus Christ.
