ETN Focus Workshops bring international educators together with local student recruitment experts in a series of exclusive events worldwide. We provide valuable regional insights and contacts, helping you to diversify your international student mix.

Our workshops are open to: Universities, High/Boarding Schools, Language and Training Schools, Summer/Winter camps and other service providers.

Why Bolivia?

  • With a growth rate averaging 4.9% GDP between 2004 – 2015, Bolivia has been outstripping regional competitors such as Brazil and Peru. The country also has a youthful population in which 60% are under the age of 25.
  • The number of Bolivian students going abroad for tertiary studies between 2003-2013 has increased by 250%, according to UNESCO data. Just over 9,100 students went abroad in 2013. 40% of these are traveling to Cuba though these tend to be through the context of bilateral agreements between the two countries.
  • With a population of over 11 million, Spanish is the official language. However, a new education law has made it compulsory for foreign languages to be taught from primary school level leading to an increasing demand for English language.

Join us to gain deeper insights of these vital markets while building lasting partnerships with top recruiters who can really communicate your courses to students in their language.
