Inter Cultural Competency (ICC)
Beginning of Service
End of Service
In the next table, Table 9, we see the results of difference of mean t-test when we compare the
respondents’ assessments of their ICC competency at the beginning and end of their service. In
this case, the t-values, significant at p < 0.05 (some even suggest < 0.04), confirm that alumni
clearly improved in overall ICC development and in its individual components at the end of their
service experience.
