Networking Event for Student Recruitment
Participate in the Americas Scholarship Forum in Bogota and connect with leaders of scholarship programs across North, Central, and South America, as well as the Caribbean. Elevate your student recruitment network by engaging with this event, designed to facilitate interactions with both government and private funding agencies. Discover opportunities to support students from the Americas in pursuing their education abroad.
Why take part in the Americas Scholarship Forum?
The Americas Scholarship Forum connects accredited institutions with the heads of international scholarship organizations and senior staff who manage major funding programs. These are the people that decide which education providers will receive their students and train their staff. No other event gives you this kind of access to such an influential audience. Developing a personal relationship and even signing agreements with the heads of these organizations can be of vital importance for an institution’s student recruitment strategy.
