The courses developed here are not designed in equaling to those courses in colleges or universities in America; rather the courses are developed based on the need for those children’s education from Pre-Kindergarten to high school levels.

   Most educational materials will be printed in Cambodia and they only can be used in COI’s schools.  In rare cases, some materials will be purchased from America for COI school.  COI also allows teachers who had many years of experiences in specialty areas to teach.  Those teachers can create their own curriculum of study to be used in the school after approval. 

   International teachers should be hired based on the curriculum of study.  Qualified candidates must have degrees from two college or university.  Transcripts will be required as well as sample of essay both in Khmer and English with the standard of grammar usage.  In case of a shortage of teaching candidates, COI can assign teachers who are most qualified to teach in the areas of his or her specialty.  Because of the school settings in different provinces, applicants should consider their shelter arrangement in advance as well as the safety of their well-being. 

   Salaries should be based on the living condition of those teachers who work for college and universities in Cambodia, except those who are from countries other than Cambodia will be compensated according to their expertise in the areas of teaching. 

    Each course runs for one semester.  Each student who graduates with a certificate from a previous course can register for the next one.

    Cambodian Orphanage International University is planned to have set up.  The future of international accreditation will be planned in the future.  COIU seeks to have authority to grant degree that any country will accept.

English is the most important for COI to teach.  Without proper certification, some time it is hard for those candidates to teach.  The candidates need to be proficient at all.

1. ESL—English as a Second Language is the most effective for those small children and can be taught by many college graduates.
2. ESOL—English as a Second for Other Language is very essential for everyone and can be taught by any candidate who has proficient language experience.
3. EFL—English for Foreigner Language is perfect for Khmer students who, after graduate, can continue their study in college and universities.
4. TOFL—English for most students who want to pass the test and continue to study in America.  The course can be ordered from America, usually comes with CDROM, manuals, test practices, exercises, and many other beneficial techniques.
5. Writing—This course should stress mostly on writing with correct grammar; journal writing is our best plan for students to practice everyday and share with the world.  They can publish on the Internet or share with their classmates.  They can also exchange their writing pieces among students from many different schools in Cambodia.

Even though, Khmer is not an official language in another country, but it is very useful for one to know how to translate or make it in mass media for better communication around oneself.

1. Pre-K—basic teaching and learning are important for these groups of children.
2. K—after those children grasp enough information from pre-k, they shall pick up a little faster.
3. Elementary School teaching—Structured curriculum could exist in the area of teaching and learning.
4. Middle School teaching—curriculum for this age group will be developed in the structure as those children receive in their teaching and learning in America.
5. Junior High School teaching—curriculum for this group will also be developed like those in middle school.
6. High School—most courses for this group will be developed for their readiness to go on to colleges and universities.

To be able to type both English and Khmer is so essential for many workplaces as they require working with most office machines.

1. English keyboarding—Meavis Bacon Typing is one of our plan to purchase for use.
2. Khmer keyboarding—Khek Brothers Fonts will be used for practice in MS Word (PC and MAC computers:  Appleworks, ClarisWorks, and etc).
