ITIC - International Teacher Identity Card
"Contributing to international understanding by promoting traveling and
opportunities among students, teachers and youth in general" - that is ITIC's mission.
The
International Teacher Identity Card (ITIC) offers teachers the chance of
having their special status acknowledged all over the world without needing
any additional IDs or documentation. Accepted by governments, cultural
institutions, national and international transport companies, commercial
agencies, and goods and service providers of national and international
interest, the ITIC card is endorsed by UNESCO (who has adopted is as a
product of its own) as being an excellent initiative allowing teachers to
travel in the world, become involved in inter-cultural exchanges and discover
our fascinating world.
ITIC card owners become part of an international community of teachers who
share the same passion for travel, adventure and new discoveries.
