  • ISTC International Student Travel Confederation
  • SATA - Student Air Travel Association
  • STAY WYSE Association
  • WYSE Work Abroad Association

These associations host a series of important meetings and workshops in conjunction with WYSTC, which provide members and interested newcomers alike with an opportunity to review industry developments, learn from each other, and network with potential business partners.

This year’s association meetings will take place concurrently with the seminar programme on the frst two days of WYSTC.

 

Annual General Meetings

Annual General Meetings (AGMs) are the key forum at which association members discuss current and anticipated developments in the industry, review annual reports, approve budgets, and elect Board Members. The open and active exchange of ideas at AGMs helps to keep the associations focused on meeting key industry challenges and the special requirements of the associations members.

 

Seminars, Workshops, Training and Special Sessions

Seminars, workshops, and roundtable discussions organised by the associations and WYSE Travel Confederation itself offer WYSTC conference participants additional opportunities to gain insider knowledge on matters of vital importance to the youth travel, student travel, cultural exchange and international education community.

Association membership is needed to attend some sessions; others are open to all Conference delegates.

 

ISIC Workshops

The ISIC Association conducts a series of workshops for ISIC Managers on a host of topics concerning the distribution, marketing, and technical aspects of the ISIC programme. The participatory style of ISIC workshops provides an excellent forum for ISIC issuers to learn from each others" experience and best practices.
