The 2016
IIE Summit on Generation Study Abroad will take place on
October 23-25, 2016 at the Omni Shoreham Hotel in
Washington, DC and
registrations are open now.
The 2016 IIE Summit is part of IIE’s
Generation Study Abroad®, a five year initiative to
double the number of U.S. students studying abroad by the end of the decade. Generation Study Abroad seeks to significantly increase and diversify participation by bringing higher education institutions, employers, governments, K-12 teachers, associations, and others together to build on current best practices and find new ways to extend study abroad opportunities and resources to tens of thousands of college students whose needs are not currently served by existing study abroad programs.
The Summit will
bring education, government and business leaders and journalists together for action-oriented discussion on how to ensure
international experience is a key part of a 21st century education and make
study abroad opportunities available to all. It is more important than ever that U.S. students graduate with the international, intercultural, and language skills that they will need to help solve today’s global challenges.
