IECC is dedicated to helping teachers connect with other teachers to arrange intercultural email connections between their students. A new service, IECC-INTERGEN, helps teachers and their classrooms create intergenerational partnerships with volunteers who are over 50 years of age.

Created in 1992 by three professors from St. Olaf College in Minnesota, IECC was one of the first services on the Web to facilitate international pen-pal exchanges between teachers and classrooms around the globe For more about the IECC story, click here.
