BMI EDUCATION WORKSHOPS

Connect with International Education Professionals and Enhance your Career Development

THE/BMI are proud to present a series of events for high school counsellors, universities, colleges and directors of international offices of universities in specific countries.

Taking place in major cities across the globe, events are held over two, three or seven days. Each event is carefully designed to include the very best professional development sessions and opportunities to meet with your counselling or university colleagues as well as senior staff of international universities and colleges.
