Meeting students and their families face to face while they are actively researching and selecting study abroad opportunities is a fantastic way to bring your brand to life and create a personal connection with your prospects. Held in both March and October, our Vietnam Global Education Fair has been growing year on year, as eager, ambitious Vietnamese increasingly spread their wings to experience an education abroad.

To directly connect you with younger learners in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, BMI has two solutions:

• As part of our main Global Education Fair, we also take a select number of institutions into leading Vietnamese private high schools known for producing gifted students with the financial wealth to enable them to study overseas. You’ll exhibit directly to senior students and high school counsellors at several schools, with helpful BMI staff on hand to manage every aspect of the visit – from escorted bus rides to the setup of all your materials – giving you a hassle-free experience so you can concentrate on what you do best: recruiting students.
• If you’re recruiting for boarding schools, high schools and summer camps, we recommend our new event held in October, the BMI Global Boarding & High School Fair, which coincides with the main fair but specifically targets parents with younger children.

Given the fact that students are going abroad at younger and younger ages, having firm links at the secondary school level in your target recruitment countries is crucial. Our Vietnam International Schools Forum & Workshop is designed to help you achieve exactly that.

New in 2019, the Forum will be held in Vietnam this October, enabling you to establish and strengthen relationships with secondary school principals and counsellors who regularly advise students and parents on which countries and institutions abroad are the best match for them. These attendees represent the top bilingual, international and private schools from throughout Vietnam, creating a perfect pathway for higher education overseas.

Held in March in Bangkok and in Ho Chi Minh City in November, the BMI Agent Workshop Asia is a convenient, cost-effective way to meet a large variety of quality screened agents under one roof.

With over a dozen countries represented from across Asia at each event, you’ll be able to enrich and expand your agent contacts as a wealth of Asian agent connections comes to you.

Recognising the importance of China’s Tier 2 cities, BMI is proud to launch another new event in 2019: the BMI Agent Roadshow T2 China. Over six days, we’ll take you to three cities which are undergoing rapid expansion yet are off the radar of many recruiters, bringing you face to face with local agents who are keen to form new partnerships with overseas institutions.

Prior to BMI’s workshops, you’ll pre-schedule meetings via the Marcom scheduling system, giving you control over who you meet and making sure your time is well spent. BMI agents have also been carefully screened to ensure they are active in the market and operating to high ethical standards.

And finally, the most prestigious event on BMI’s calendar is the Global Scholarship Summit, held every spring in London. With a truly global feel, the Summit attracts all the key scholarship programme providers from 42 countries around the world, giving you an unprecedented opportunity to form alliances with not only scholarship organisations from Asia, but from all over the globe.

In the international education industry, there is truly no other event like it.
