Australia’s international student peak body the Council of International Students (CISA) is seeking Expressions of Interest (EOI) from organisations to host its annual national conference next July.

In its fifth year, the conference will also mark the peak body’s fifth anniversary of its establishment.

Organisations interested in hosting the 2015 national conference will need to submit their EOIs to CISA by November 28, 2014.

Prospective hosts will be shortlisted by December 5, and contacted to provide additional information by December 15, 2014.

CISA will then confirm the final selection, and announce the successful host in early 2015.

The preferred date of the conference is July 6 to 8, 2015.

More comprehensive information about what should be included in the EOIs along with the submission details can be found on CISA’s official website. Prospective organisations who are interested in learning more about CISA and its past conferences can visit the dedicated page on the same website, or contact the CISA president, Thomson Ch’ng, at pres@cisa.edu.au.
