Student Residency
The required five-day residency for all IHE students is an energizing week that includes practical, hands-on learning, and offers students an opportunity to practice and explore humane education activities, techniques, and issues with fellow students and faculty. The residency -- held up to twice per year -- takes place at the Institute for Humane Education in Surry, Maine, and includes dynamic, interactive training, which helps students hone presentation skills, receive and give critical feedback, and connect with IHE staff and others in the program.

~ Sophia (2008)
“Much more than I could have hoped for. I keep being amazed by the creativity, optimism, encouragement, challenge, mentorship, love, and different prisms that this team presents to all of us. THANK YOU! I’m especially grateful for how much you let us teach each other. You were such good models of teachers as learners and learners as teachers.”
~ Lynne (2008)
“I really appreciated the community building opportunity, the chance to connect with committed people working in complementary ways in so many different contexts and places.”
~ Ariane (2008)

~ Phoebe (2007)
"The residency training was superb. It was all round; skill-wise, concept-wise, practically and very relevant."
~ Peterson (2007)
"Residency actually exceeded my expectations. I was focused on what I may gain academically from the week and highly underestimated (ironically) the humanity of the shared experience. Lovely, like-minded people coming together with graceful and gentle modeling from the faculty and staff."
