Connect with counsellors and principals from the leading private, bilingual and international schools in Brazil.

Sao Paulo, Brazil
18 & 19 March 2026

Connect with counsellors from Brazil's best high schools

Join us in 2026 for this exclusive event which begins with an opening cocktail reception to start off in style, followed by private pre-scheduled meetings the next two days with 26 schools of your choice.

You’ll be able to select the specific high school representatives you wish to meet and pre-organise all of your appointments via Marcom, the online scheduling system.

The BMI Brazil International Schools Forum & Workshop is truly unique in its ability to connect you with influential leaders at the secondary school level in Brazil.

This exclusive event gives you access to decision-makers and advisors at the top international and private high schools whose high achieving students possess strong English language skills and a vibrant energy that lights up any classroom.

Key influencers in the student journey

Widen your network with those who actively advise and prepare their secondary school students for higher education overseas:

  • Target and pre-organise meetings with specific principals and high school counsellors.
  • Have 26 private meetings in 2 days.
  • Create and solidify relationships at exceptional networking functions including a cocktail reception on the first evening as well as coffee breaks and lunch the following day.

 

New professional development accreditation for attending counsellors

With so much variance in international undergraduate admissions processes and requirements, our events give counsellors the chance to not only meet industry colleagues face to face, but also enhance their own knowledge and career development.

During our workshop, counsellors will also attend educational seminars which form part of Times Higher Education Counsellor Accreditation Program (THE CAP). Consisting of 12 modules and covering a solid range of content to help improve counsellors’ daily tasks when advising students, THE CAP is a ground-breaking professional development programme to support the international school sector.

All attending counsellors will receive some in-person training from THE CAP during the event, and then finish the remaining sessions online. Once completed, they will be among an elite cohort of school counsellors who hold a globally recognised accreditation, bolstering their career profile and thereby enhancing the reputation of their school.
