This qualitative study investigated a ten-day international field experience in Peru and its influence on undergraduate and graduate level teacher education students’ cultural competency. Data were collected on 8 participants through observations, focus groups, individual interviews, and course assignments. Participants reported positive personal and professional change in regards to cultural learning and intercultural understanding. They identified how the experience positively influenced their teaching and how they would apply their increased knowledge and understanding about cultural diversity in their classrooms and in interactions with children and parents.
