UKCISA Conference:
Further Education International Network
The UKCISA/AoC FE International Network meets
two to three times a year as a forum for staff involved
in international activity in the college sector to meet
and discuss issues of common interest. Events
include presentations from relevant bodies such
as the UK Border Agency and British Council, and
practitioner-led discussions based on institutional
case studies.
If you would like to suggest any topics or speakers, or volunteer to host a meeting at your college, please contact beatrice@ukcisa.org.uk
Forthcoming events
Future meeting details will be posted here. We expect to hold the next meeting of the network in November 2013.
