Preparation

MUNUC XXIII Training & Seminar Program

MUNUC prides itself on providing a distinct, educational experience for high school students, and we make every effort to extend this experience throughout the year. In order to make the knowledge and experience of our staff available to you, we offer the opportunity to have members of MUNUC visit your school to lead a discussion about the United Nations, the workings of Model UN and MUNUC, and/or a wide range of international issues that may interest your students. Staff members are trained to provide an informative and interactive seminar for your students, and each session will be supplemented with relevant materials to ensure that the discussion is as educational and enriching as possible. We offer this program to delegations of all backgrounds and will tailor our program to the general level of your students' Model UN experience. Unfortunately, we do not have the resources to visit schools located outside of the Chicagoland area, but we offer to send pertinent training materials used in our sessions to schools that we cannot visit. Please use the topics below as a guideline when requesting a school visit or materials.
