The region's progressive
Collaborative for Innovative Education

What we do

ABOUT

​The Mediterranean Association of International Schools is a professional organization that strives to improve the quality of education in its Member schools. It promotes the professional development of Faculty, Administrators, and Board Members, promoting communication and interchange and creating international understanding.

​

MAIS is evolving and renewing its commitment to the membership community. As a progressive organization, we are redesigning MAIS to be network-based and agile, capable of responding effectively to regional needs. Our association has adapted to maintain high-quality professional development (PD) while adopting a more streamlined and flexible structure.

 

Our innovative model is centered on developing professional capacity within our schools, tailored to the specific needs of local networks. We aim to facilitate and foster collaborative learning communities within regions, building capacity around future-focused pedagogy through targeted learning festivals. Schools identify their needs, and MAIS provides workshops led by professionals who specialize in those areas.

​

MAIS is dedicated to offering authentic, high-quality professional development for every level of your school, from teachers to the Board, without the high costs. Our collaborative and innovative approach ensures "just-in-time" and future-ready professional growth and development for teachers and administrators, enhancing the educational experience for all.
