Connecting Continents: The European Association of International Education celebrates its coming of age in Madrid.

This September, the EAIE Conference celebrates its 21st anniversary in the sunniest and greenest capital of Europe. A cosmopolitan and dynamic city, Madrid has attracted immigrants from all over the world, including Latin America, the Middle East, and Africa.

Conference dates: 16-19 September 2009
Site of the EAIE Conference: Palacio Municipal de Congresos de Madrid

The EAIE is a non-profit organization whose main aim is the internationalization of higher education in Europe and around the world, and to meet the professional needs of individuals active in international education.

Madrid's rich history with other nations and cultures makes this year's conference theme, Connecting Continents a fitting choice. In keeping with this theme, many of the sessions and workshops will focus on providing participants with the skills and tools they need to attract students from continents all over the world to their institutions.

Numerous seminars, sessions and workshops will take place during four intense days. From Beyond 2010: the next decade of the Bologna process to The Spanish way of life: what students should expect, registered assistants will have the opportunity to discuss the wide array of issues concerning Higher Education in Europe and worldwide.

¡De Madrid al cielo!
Madrid offers a bit of everything, or as the Madrileños say: de Madrid al cielo. After Madrid there is only one destination left - heaven.
