Pre & Post Activities

FAM Tours & Receptions

Once your workshop participation has been confirmed by ICEF, you are invited to apply to attend the agent familiarisation (FAM) tours and receptions being hosted by participating educators, associations and / or service providers.

FAM tours offer you valuable knowledge and first hand experience which you can pass on to your counsellors and clients:

  • insight into the country and region you are visiting
  • increased product knowledge of the institution(s) you are visiting
  • face-to-face meetings with institution staff and teachers

Please see the list of FAM Tour offerings below. Each tour has varying costs and conditions and each tour has limitations on who may apply. You will hear directly from the FAM tour organiser if your application has been successful. The offer of a place on a FAM tour is at the sole discretion of the organiser and is not determined by ICEF.

Aside from attending FAM Tours and receptions, agents are also invited to host an event in order to gain exposure and promote your organisation to workshop registered educators.
