Come Meet The Forum at NAFSA Booth 1027

Booth 1027, come say Hi!

After a hugely successful Forum conference in Chicago, we are once again excited to attend #NAFSA22! There will be a team of six representing The Forum this year, along with various members of our Board, Council and working groups and we’d love to meet with members, potential members, government agencies, professionals interested in training opportunities and more.

Please connect with us on the NAFSA platform, come along to one of our sessions outlined below or swing by Booth #1027 any time to find out about all our latest activities.

If you’d like to schedule something specific, you can book in a chat about membership and all that that brings using the links below or visit our booth between 2:30 and 3:30 (Tues, Wed, Thurs), to snack on chocolate and talk to our team about Membership, Professional Certification, Customized Training, Consulting Services and more!
