Registration Opens for WETM-IAC 2015

WYSE Work and Volunteer Abroad and the International Au Pair Association (IAPA) have opened registration for WETM-IAC 2015, which will be held in Lisbon next spring.

More than 200 delegates are expected to gather at the Sheraton Lisboa Hotel from 15-17 March 2015 for the annual gathering of industry professionals representing the cultural exchange, au pair, volunteer, internship and work experience sectors.

In addition to taking part in an informative and thought provoking seminar and workshop programme, delegates can choose to arrange pre-scheduled business appointments and participate in networking events.

The annual event will also see the IAPA Au Pair of the Year Award presented, which recognises one individual’s achievements as an au pair and highlights the mutual benefit au pairs and families receive from this type of cultural exchange programme. Nominations are expected to open in the coming weeks.

David Chapman, Director General of WYSE Travel Confederation, home of the IAPA and WYSE Work and Volunteer Abroad sector associations, said, “This highly regarded annual event provides a valuable forum in which members of the global cultural exchange community can come together to connect and trade. We look forward to welcoming delegates from across the globe to Lisbon next March for WETM-IAC 2015 where they will gain the latest industry insights, identify new opportunities within this thriving sector and help to shape its future.”

Delegates registering by Wednesday, 17 December 2014 can benefit from early bird rates.
