The theme of the 2010 conference is Living and Working in an Intercultural World.

Why should you attend the Tenth Annual SIETAR-USA conference? The SIETAR-USA membership goals provide the focus for the annual conference. As a participant you can benefit in the following ways:

Business Opportunities. Grow your career. “Get the word around” about what you do, perhaps even find a job (it’s amazing how often this happens at the conferences). This past April 2009 conference at Cary, N.C. included participants from across the U.S. and from England, France, India, Germany, Canada, Brazil, Iran, British Virgin Islands, and Puerto Rico.

Networking. Connect with intercultural professionals from around the USA and from around the world. Professional networking is in at the forefront of the SIETAR-USA conference with long coffee breaks, group lunches, and relaxed evening activities.

Professional Development. Expand your skills, knowledge and resources. Be part of the action and join in the on-going effort to explore future directions for intercultural relations in the three areas represented in SIETAR: education, training and research.

Giving Back. Grow the profession. Volunteer to serve the Society by joining committees associated with the conference, becoming a SIETAR- USA volunteer or mentoring aspiring colleagues.

The SIETAR-USA 2010 conference is being held in Spokane, WA from April 14-17, 2010.
