The International Schools Review Forum

Is anyone here a member? I know some people will chime in to say that professional organizations in our field are not worth it. However, I'm asking for people who are actually members to share their opinions. I'm looking at their FB page, but I'm wondering if there is a targeted subgroup for K-12 educators, or do they lean more towards internationalism in higher ed?

I am and have been for awhile. For me I was looking at positions as International Student advisor and the like. I have a background in Intercultural Communications. I'm a teacher now but still have my eye open for something in the future. I have no idea about a k-12 subgroup. I find it's mostly for college age students however I know many private schools have numbers of international students. What job are you looking for?

I concur with @grdwdgrrr, lts mostly for tertiary educators and those in Uni. Most of it is focused on exchanges. I am not aware of a K12/KS sub group.

Thanks grdwdgrrrl! I'm not looking for a job in higher ed, I'm just wishing to expand my involvement with larger professional associations that offer networking or support for K-12 international educators. I guess I'll keep my NEA membership going. For IEs I reckon CIS, ECIS, and other regional associations are still our best bet.

NAFSA isnt the organization for you. While Ive had some interesting interactions, they tend to look down on K12/KS educators, with the focus being on tertiary exchange programs and collaborations.
