International Business School, Budapest-Vienna was extremely happy to have participated at the education Fair in Montenegro organised by the ISEM agency in October 2022. We had lots of excellent conversations with students and families from Montenegro who were interested in obtaining a full British BSc/MSc degree in Budapest, Hungary with more affordable fees than in the UK but the same high level of British practice-oriented education. We can’t wait to attend the next fair.

UCLL is looking forward to welcoming students from Montenegro in autumn.

Our International Recruitment Office has attended two rounds of education fairs organized by ISEM so far. In both occasions we appreciated a thorough organization, high-quality prospective students and efficient follow-up activities. Montenegro is always a good choice to search for talented, motivated international students.

Attending the International Educational Fair in Podgorica as a representative of the School of Advanced Social Studies was an incredible experience.

Oswestry School, United Kingdom 

It was a great pleasure and privilege to attend the ISEM Spring Fair and I enjoyed a very productive first visit to Montenegro.  We were hosted brilliantly by Backo and the ISEM team who made us all feel hugely welcome, kept us well informed on details, and ensured the experience was a memorable one, including a fantastic finale dinner at the traditional Montenegrin restaurant Pod Volat. The Fair itself was an excellent occasion with significant numbers of visitors and lots of interest at the Oswestry School desk.  In fact, it was pretty much non-stop from 12noon to 6pm! I enjoyed sharing with families something of the Oswestry School story, and there was lots of interest. In short, a superb experience, so I congratulate all at ISEM for putting together such a successful event.  We will certainly look to return.

Each location was thoughtfully selected to ensure families and students could easily attend the fair and we had access to quality leads at each venue.

Myddelton College and Adcote School, United Kingdom

I was really happy to participate at the ISEM Fair this Spring. It was unusual to see many schools from different countries all over the World. The reception was very nice and we had a chance to network and discuss the business. The Fair was very “busy” and the number of people who were seriously considering educating their children abroad was impressive. The quality of potential students is 5 Star, they were all B2 and above in English , some have excellent academic results. I believe we will have very good students for September 2023 at both schools. Looking forward to attending the ISEM Fair again.

St Lawrence College, United States

I thoroughly enjoyed attending the ISEM Agency event in Podgorica. The event was superbly well organised and there was significant footfall throughout the day.

BEC ITALIA

Has participated many times to the Fair in Podgorica and has always appreciated all the moments dedicated to them, as Italian partners.  I can just say that it is always very satisfactory the way the Fair is organized, the recruitment of the motivated and talented students, who come to get information and the right location, refined and elegant, surrounded by nice and smiling people.

I’m always impressed by the attention the meetings are scheduled, not to get long queues in front of the desk, but a smooth flow of people, really interested in the programs proposed.

In these years, I have always met again IN ITALY, ON BEC PROGRAM, some students, I had met 1 or 2 years before, at Podgorica Fair.

For BEC, that means a great success! Thanks to Backo and his ISEM team!

 

North Cedar Academy, United States

I was delighted to represent my boarding school at the recent ISEM education fair in Podgorica. During the one-day event, I engaged about 50 fair attendees and, among my strong leads, I already have two applications! Overall, the event was a success by my standards and I’m happy I participated. This was my first ISEM fair, and I am equally pleased to report that I found the ISEM staff to be extraordinarily warm and welcoming.

EF Academy International Boarding Schools, United Kingdom and United States

ISEM fair never disappoints. The organization, the right audience of attendees and the wonderful people of the agency are the key ingredients for ISEM’s success

 

Eerde International Boarding School, the Netherlands 

As a first-time participant, I had uncertainty in my expectations in regard to destination interest, English levels, and an overall attendance of the event. After the first 15 minutes, it was obvious that the ISEM Agency delivers. I was fully impressed with the quality of the students, their focus, and the parents’ knowledge of curriculum options. The ISEM Team exuberates professionalism, but with an added personal touch. I feel this is one important aspect that sets their event apart from others. The Team knows the schools, the representatives, and the families’ needs, and it shows. No matter if your educational offering is from a large school group or a private small-scale school, like mine, there is a place for you in the ISEM family. The venue was beautiful with a high level of hospitality that is difficult to match, I thoroughly enjoyed my first experience in Podgorica. I truly enjoyed the end-of-event dinner which provided a casual platform for all representatives to engage, connect and sample authentic Montenegrin cuisine. My takeaway from ISEM 2023 Podgorica: 1) Backo and his team know the market and are extremely well-connected; 2) They provide families and students with a wide range of options when it comes to school choice; 3) For educational providers, Backo delivers not only quantity to this event but quality: students that are keen to study abroad, with the correct educational level and age group to make a smooth transition. I look forward to a great partnership and the next event.

 

Schloss Schule Kirchberg, Germany

Having now attended two education fairs in Podgorica put on by Agencija ISEM, I have been consistently astounded by the scale and excellent organization of the events, the sheer number of meetings I had with students and parents, and most importantly, the quality of those meetings. Thanks to ISEM, we have already been fortunate enough to welcome the first student from Montenegro at our school, with more promising perspective students in sight. Overall, we are very grateful for the fruitful partnership with ISEM, and I will always look forward to the chance to attend future events. Montenegro may be a small country, but the team at ISEM has proven that it is a market with huge potential!

 

Yago School, Spain

I recently attended the ISEM education fair as a secondary school, and it exceeded all my expectations! From the moment I walked in, I was impressed by the fair’s organization, the variety of exhibitors, and the overall welcoming atmosphere.

One of the highlights was the opportunity to speak directly with the lovely families they represent. They were knowledgeable, approachable, and ready to ask and answer questions, which really helped me better explain our program options. The ISEM staff was friendly and helpful, always on hand to guide and provide useful information.

 

H-Farm International School, Italy 

 

Canadian College Italy

The ISEM fair was the single most successful event my school has ever attended. The vetting and groundwork that the ISEM team put into finding quality leads really did the trick. All our appointments were meaningful, and we recruited more students that day than any other fair ever, including any ICEF fair. We can’t wait to go back to Montenegro.

 

London International Academy, Canada 

I would like to express my gratitude to Backo and all ISEM staff for the excellently organized fair with so many attendees, both individual students and families. With all the media coverage and popularity with the local audience, ISEM team is truly the best! Although Canada was not the most popular destination for secondary education, I still hope with the help of the ISEM team we can convert some of those in doubt into our future students. And it’s been a good start for our cooperation. Very thankful for the invitation and hope to become ISEM’s regular participant!
