The countdown to AIEA’s 2027 Annual Conference is on! Join us February 15–18 in Washington, DC as we celebrate 45 years of bringing international education leaders together for thoughtful conversation, shared learning, and meaningful connections. Under the theme Nurturing Leadership, Shaping Global Education, AIEA 2027 will offer fresh opportunities to exchange ideas, strengthen relationships, and explore what’s ahead for our field.

This year’s conference will feature a few new ways to make the most of your experience. We’re introducing a Conference Buddy Program, designed to help first-time attendees connect with returning participants and feel at home in the AIEA community. We’re also offering a special hotel-block registration discount for AIEA members who book their stay at the Marriott Marquis, making it easier to take advantage of member savings while staying right in the middle of all the conference action.

Learn more about registration, pre-conference workshops, the schedule, and additional opportunities to connect.
