I had attended regional NAFSA conferences before, but this was my first time to attend the national conference. Karen Krug, Research & Knowledge Management Evaluator: Long story short, that's a much easier question to answer as compared to the case of the fake summer course, although who doesn't love a good "credential conundrum"? We love helping out newbies and luckily, we had just rolled-out ECE Essentials, our retreat-style training program specifically meant for professionals new to credential evaluation. I met with at least a dozen people who were not only new to NAFSA, but to the field in general. This year, the common theme seemed to be training. A very tricky situation, especially if a syllabus is not normally required to transfer international credits back or the summer program was not pre-approved. who returned home and completed a summer course for which the syllabus had actually been plagiarized. I typically spend most of the conference at the ECE booth, which is always busy! What's interesting is that every year a theme seems to emerge from the questions we get.įor example, last year we had many different institutions ask how they could handle cases of students currently studying in the U.S. Jack Nelson, Director of Market Development: Several of our employees attended this year and we asked them about their experience. This year's NAFSA Annual Conference and Expo was held in Philadelphia, PA.
