Commissional work table

Here students can offer their services to schools, for example: writing a business plan, evaluating the school, writing a new webpage or working out a PR campaign, fundraising, etc. It is a win-win situation, allowing students to develop their skills and schools to profit from them!

Job fair

Students and professionals are welcome to take advantage of our job fair in which they can get in touch with schools to discuss future exchanges, employment opportunities, etc.

 

Concept

Since the goal of this conference is to set up an exchange platform for schools, we kindly ask for one contribution per school to share with others (e.g. a PR concept, fundraising concept, testing material, etc.) in an exchange group during the course of the conference.

Teachers:The conference will give you the chance to share your expertise and experiences with other Christian educators, learn from one another, build up your network and be encouraged! Those interested in school founding are also most welcome. A special School Founding Seminar based on the ICS Concept will be presented. For further information see:“School Founding Seminar”

University Students: Do you want to share your knowledge with Christian schools? Are you interested in getting to know other like-minded students and educators? Or do you want to see what career and exchange opportunities are available to you in the field of Education? Then you’ve come to right place! Whether you’re a student of Business, Education, Languages or more, your skills can be put to good use. Come to the conference to find out how!

 

Experts: Do you want to support Christian schools? Then you’ve come to right place! Whether you’re an expert of Business, Education, Languages, Ergotherapy, Psychology or more, your skills can be put to good use. Come to the conference to find out how!

Companies and Organisations: Not only teachers and university students can profit from the conference but companies and organsations can, too!
