"I have had the opportunity to participate in many Road Shows arranged by Students International in Siberia, the Far East and in Moscow. I have always been impressed by the quality of the fair, the large number of informed visitors who are actively interested in learning about study options in NZ, many have lead to applications. Students International and ACG have a long history of partnership; SI is the main recruitment agent for us in Russia. The quality of the applications, the degree of support provided and the follow up provided to their students post arrival is outstanding."

"Students International Road Show was a tremendous success and a wonderful opportunity to get to know the people of Russia. The school visits and fairs were well organized. The highlight for me was having the opportunity to visit schools and talk with students about Canada. Russian students were enthusiastic and had lots of questions. The cultural events organized by Students International were amazing. The whole experience was great and I took some wonderful memories home with me."

"Pacific International Hotel Management School (PIHMS) has been involved regularly in the Students International (SI) Road Shows both in the Western and Far East of Russia for the past 5-6 years and has seen the exhibitions grows to what has now become a popular and well attended event. The events are well organized and provide an excellent opportunity for not only talk to students and partners but visit schools and Universities. The Road Show also gives participants an ideal opportunity to experience Russian culture through day trips and evening events, and I would highly recommend the Road Shows as an excellent avenue for recruiting Russians students."

"The Students International Roadshows are extremely organized in the most professional manner-from arrival to departure all aspects of travel, accommodation, meals (entertainment too) are arranged. The exhibitions in each city are excellent. Prior to the exhibitions there are a variety of different forms of advertising to ensure a high quality of clients who attend the exhibitions. The SI team from each city employs superb interpreters for each institution…their level of English and Russian is wonderful and most have experienced travel abroad. In addition to this the SI local office staff have a table to direct clients as well as the highly experienced and trained SI head office staff who can answer all questions from travel , visas and additional pathway options. Anyone wishing to expand their Russian student market can ensure that Students International will assist you to do so…so I highly recommend the SI Roadshows in the different zones in Russia and the surrounding countries"

Marketing Director, ILAC, Canada
"The Students International Road Shows are the most interesting and productive students recruitment fairs. SI has also the most experienced and professional staff, who understand the business aspect of this industry, but are also extremely innovating being always the first at what they do.
The staff is warm, extremely helpful and the Road Shows are really one of a kind, entering into new territory in Russia and Siberia, and staying out of the already "congested" cities."

"I have participated in SI exhibitions in the Russian Far East on more
than
one occasion. SI staff have always taken good care of me, and have ensured
that my visits to Russia are memorable and never dull! I have developed
good friendships with SI staff in Vladivostok, Khabarovsk, and
Petropavlovsk-Kamchatski, and met with many hundreds of potential students
at trade shows organised by SI. If you wish to recruit students from the
Russian Far East then you should definitely consider joining an SI education
exhibition tour.

"For the last two years, I have attended education exhibitions organised by Students International through the Far East. I have found the exhibitions to be of great value in terms of the calibre of the students, the professional way the exhibitions are conducted and the opportunities to present at local colleges and universities. SI has a great team of professional and knowledgeable individuals who do an outstanding job counselling and advising students and parents. I would recommend anyone to attend their exhibitions in Russia."

"I participated in the Students International Far East Roadshow from October 1 - October 5, 2009. The fair was professionally organized and managed; every possible detail had been planned and the SI staff were exceptionally helpful in assisting my navigation throughout the Far East of Russia.
GV will definitely participate in future SI roadshows as they provide a wonderful opportunity to have a better understanding of not only the students needs, but also to meet the front line sales representatives at the various offices in the SI network."

"I have participated in two SI Roadshows and am planning on my third. The SI Roadshows make it possible for Malaspina to access segments of the Russian market which otherwise would be very difficult to recruit from. The results are promising, and we anticipate that the SI Roadshows will become a regular part of our recruitment efforts in Russia."
