- Improve awareness of international student issues.
- Provide information on international student recruitment, credential evaluation, admission, and retention trends in international education.
- Assist educators who teach English to speakers of other languages with information on community services and enrichment programs for international students and their families.
- Help coordinators of study abroad programs, advisers to students on overseas opportunities, advisers on scholarships for study and research abroad, representatives of internship abroad programs, and faculty and staff at U.S. institutions who are involved in international educational exchange.
