WHO WE ARE
CBIE is a non-profit, non-governmental organization, and a professional association of institutions and individuals engaged in international education policy and practice.

CBIE consists of nearly 200 member schools, school boards, colleges, universities, organizations and corporations. We are governed by a 21-member Board of Directors, both elected and appointed. Our activities are managed by a team of professionals located in Ottawa.

WHAT WE DO
CBIE engages in policy development, research, advocacy and public information. CBIE is both a leader in shaping Canada's international education agenda and a highly recognized provider of professional development programs for Canada's international educators. CBIE manages vital services for students from developing countries studying in Canada.

THE VALUE OF CBIE MEMBERSHIP
CBIE members benefit from being part of a community of international education professionals and supporters. CBIE is the only organization that crosses sectors and levels: CBIE is the Canadian meeting place for international educators engaged in elementary, secondary, college, university, and other types and levels of education.

Members inform and engage in CBIE advocacy initiatives that have direct impact on their performance in international education, for example, in the area of student authorization processing by immigration officials and in pan-Canadian promotional strategies to attract international students and education service contracts.

Members enjoy input to and benefit from professional development seminars and resources that improve their capacity to serve international students, deliver study abroad programs for Canadians and develop policy and practice in numerous areas connected to international education.

Members receive up-to-the-minute information on opportunities and events across Canada and the globe.

Members benefit from specific members-only opportunities, including the Elizabeth Paterson International Student of the Year Award.

Membership catapults you, your institution, organization or company into the forefront of international education both in Canada and abroad.
