Who We Are

At The Forum, we view ourselves as stewards of the education abroad community. We are thought leaders and experts. We are conveners, bringing minds together, on the cutting edge of developments in the field.

We are always learning. We are your partners, co-creators, and champions, working and thinking together to develop innovative solutions to your challenges.

What We Do

Consulting

Customized Workshops

Presentations

Grant Collaborations

We build critical capacity to advance your work. We monitor trends in education abroad and in the broader field of higher education and use this knowledge to help you develop, strategize, problem-solve, and evaluate. We create spaces to tackle difficult topics with courage.
 
We support institutions and organizations to leverage their existing knowledge, build capacity, and advocate for investment in education abroad in times of transition. This includes offering external review that brings objective insight, alignment with the Standards of Good Practice, and strategic guidance for continuous improvement.
​
We support individuals in their professional and leadership development as education abroad practitioners, helping to hone their skills in critical areas, in ways that integrate their values and celebrate their strengths.

We collaborate with institutions and organizations as co-authors or service providers on grant proposals, bringing deep expertise in the Standards of Good Practice, capacity-building, and field-defining resources to support impactful education abroad initiatives.

​Thank you for a very helpful, clear, and orderly reflection of our strengths and our 'developing strengths' (a.k.a. weaknesses). I am so happy I called on The Forum to help us complete the assessment, and grateful The Forum was able to assemble such a fantastic team of insightful, thoughtful professionals to work with us. It is clear from the report that this team grasped the complexity of our organization, the talents and reach of many of our people, and the effects of the external forces we are attempting to address as we grown our international presence.
