CSIET will host its 3rd Annual CSIET International Symposium on May 19-20, 2026, in Berlin, Germany.
The 2026 edition of the CSIET International Symposium, Shaping the New Normal, will be held in Berlin, Germany on May 19-20 at GLS Language School. 2025 was a difficult year for the high school exchange community. Visa pauses. Visa denials. Budget cuts, and political uncertainty. Our community is facing unprecedented challenges. How do we safeguard and promote secondary student exchange to the U.S. in this era of uncertainty. Join CSIET, US Government representatives, international agencies and industry colleagues to identify and address some of the most pressing issues of our time, and to ensure sustainability of the program going forward.
