“Teaching at IACA is an amazing experience. Students from different backgrounds – and with different experiences – contribute with examples and make discussions lively and relevant. IACA offers students from all parts of the world a unique opportunity to become anti-corruption experts. I am proud to be part of it.

“Teaching at IACA has always been a special privilege for me. Not only do I meet extremely capable and motivated students, I also learn from them about how to fight corruption even in the most difficult circumstances

Mikhail Reider-Gordon

“After a week of teaching, one comes away exhausted, but inspired and exhilarated - by the students’ passion for learning, collaborative mindset, and innovative approaches to a complex topic. Their optimism is infectious, and their courage is humbling when one learns of the obstacles many have confronted to even get to IACA.
