PROPOSAL FORM for FAM Tours and Receptions / Latin America
FAM Tours & Receptions
Agent familiarisation (FAM) tours and receptions are excellent ways for you to gain exposure and promote your institution and / or association to event registered agents.
FAM tours allow you to take advantage of a large number of agents attending the event and attract them to visit your institution, campus and region. Effective FAM tours enable agents to increase their product knowledge and bring back first-hand experience to potential students.
FAM Tour guidelines:
- FAM tour organisers may determine all logistics, conditions and costs associated with their tour, including which event participants are accepted to join, and which are not.
- ICEF will not get involved in the organisation of FAM tours, but simply ensure relevancy for event participants as well as an equal representation of tours to all delegates.
- All delegates interested in attending FAM tours will be asked to make direct contact with the tour organiser. Organisers are responsible for confirming or declining acceptance directly with participants.
- FAM tour organisers wishing to promote their tour through ICEF are required to submit a proposal. All proposals are subject to approval by ICEF.
- FAM tours may only be offered outside of event related activities and times.
- Only organisations attending the event may meet and host other event participants. We do not wish to encourage non-registered institutions to access and benefit from meeting potential business partners that event registered organisations have paid to meet.
Reception guidelines:
Receptions allow you to host agents in a memorable way while reinforcing your brand. Inviting the agents that you wish to target gives you the chance to make meaningful and focused connections in a relaxed and fun environment.
- Reception organisers may determine all logistics, conditions and costs associated with their event, including which event participants and other business partners are accepted to join, and which are not.
- ICEF will not get involved in the organisation of receptions, but simply ensure relevancy for event participants as well as an equal representation of receptions to all delegates.
- All event participants interested in attending a reception will be asked to make direct contact with the reception organiser. Organisers are responsible for confirming or declining acceptance directly with participants.
- Reception organisers wishing to promote their event through ICEF are requested to provide information as outlined on the ICEF website.
- Receptions may only be offered outside of event related activities and times.
- Only organisations attending the event may meet and host other event participants. We do not wish to encourage non-registered institutions to access and benefit from meeting potential business partners that event registered organisations have paid to meet.

Once your proposal has been accepted by ICEF, we will promote your event to assist you in attracting the quantity and variety of agents desired.

ICEF will also promote your event to all attending agents once their registration has been approved, as well as in numerous follow-up communications prior to the event.

“I always attend ICEF South America (since 2010). It was really helpful for us to do
new business and find quality institutions from many different countries. It is very
well organized and everything works. I really enjoy coming.” - Helena Rodrigues, Clubclass Language Schools, Malta.
“The event was very well organised and provided educators with great support.
Marcom Onsite was a very useful tool for checking the schedule and managing
last minute meetings. Overall, it was a productive event.” - Camilla De Jesus Nunes, Virginia International University, USA.
“I was very happy with the amount of agents interested in our courses. My meetings
were booked out within one day of the schedule opening. I had double the amount
of requests for meetings than spots available. The quality of agents is outstanding
and the organisation of the event was fantastic. I highly recommend this to education
providers who are looking to increase their presence in the Latin market.” - Sherelyn Hallam, ACCCO - Australian Child Care Career Options, Australia.
“The networking of educators and agents is very useful during all parts of the
event. Very new! Very good!” - Ricardo Costa Jr., Accademia Europea di Firenze, Italy.
“The size of this workshop is what makes us come year after year, as this enables
meeting people easier and more effective.” - Sarah Scerri, English Language Academy – ELA, Malta.
“Great event and for sure I want to attend another one in the future. Very organised,
excellent seminars and all facilities available were good.” - Sergio Kamide Junior, Edu-Inter, Canada.
“ICEF was good. For us the Brazilian market is big and a lot of agents were very
interested in our institution. Hope we can see the results soon.” - Carolina Borrell, St Peter Institute, Australia.
