Mat & Rosella on the Road in Germany

Rosella and I are two of IH London's Sales Managers and last week we took to the road to attend the 2010 ICEF Workshop in Berlin.

ICEF stands for the International Consultants for Education and Fairs and the Berlin Workshop it is one of the biggest gatherings of educational agents and schools in the world. Around 1,800 agents and school go to the Workshop, making it the biggest English as a Foreign Language (EFL) event of the year.

It's an exhausting few days, but a brilliant opportunity for us to meet the agents and schools we work with regularly (but who are based in countries thousands of miles away!). The workshop is also a good opportunity to make new contacts with agents who might be interested in sending student s to IH London in the future.

The International House World Organisation was well represented, with 20 IH schools from around the world there!

On the last evening the International House World Organisation organised a big party for the IH schools. We took a three hour boat tour of the canals of Berlin while eating, dancing and of course doing a little business!
