Fall 2002 Recruitment Opportunities A new tracking system makes it easier than ever to recruit East Asian students this fall. The IEF Student Follow-Up System allows school representatives to spend more time interacting with candidates during overseas fairs -- and less on burdensome administrative tasks. Already setting standards in the industry, the follow-up system will be featured at IEF's Fall 2002 American Education Fairs: How it Works Getting student contact information is critical at overseas fairs. But it can be challenging. Reps are busy. There are many distractions. And the data collection step often suffers during a busy show. That's why IEF's system has won so many fans since its introduction at the spring fairs. When students register, they complete an information sheet with a wealth of details. These include names; addresses; educational degrees; area of US where they'd like to study; year they wish to start; email; and telephone numbers. Participants are then assigned a number, which they wear throughout the fair. When they meet with a school representative, either the student or the rep jots down the number onto a tracking sheet. This form is then provided to IEF. Immediately after the fair, this student information is subsequently compiled into a database. The data is then shared with the school representatives, based upon their requests. Student follow-up efforts become much more efficient overall. Although it's quite labor intensive for the fair organizer, it saves students and representatives a lot of time during the event. Best of all, it keeps everyone focused on the main goal of an overseas fair -- to share information -- rather than on writing down names and addresses over and over. Fall Fair Now if you register before July 15, 2002, you are eligible for the Early Bird special for these exciting Fall Fair events. Contact IEF for more details. Ask us about the 2002 International Education Exposition in Beijing. This is China's first global recruitment fair since the nation was accepted into the World Trade Organization. It's supported by China's most important government organizations -- including China UNESCO Association and China Higher Education Association. More than 30 thousand students are expected to attend. It's a great opportunity to see how other countries are recruiting overseas. With Korea's economy booming, you don't want to miss the American Education Fair in Seoul. There is great demand for all types of US programs. This includes primary and secondary schools, preparatory academies and ESL programs. End your October at the American Education Fair in Taiwan. This is the island's premier recruiting event, and features three of Taiwan's most important cities. Long a popular market for US schools, Taiwan's students are now being courted by nations around the world. Help in reversing this trend by joining us in Taipei, Kaohsiung and Taichung.
