AIEA seeks to broaden the knowledge base and perspectives of SIOs by sharing with them substantive and practical information about various aspects of the international office. While SIOs typically oversee multiple operations, they are generally responsible for the day-to-day management of only a few of them. This series enriches the SIO’s familiarity with the areas covered and better prepares them to engage with their peers as well as their colleagues within the department or on campus.

For this series, SIOs are invited to choose one of the topics below and write five paragraphs of 175-225 words each, addressing the five things an SIO should know about the topic. 

• Education abroad
• English as a Second Language
• Exchange scholars
• F-1 students
• Financial Resources for International Office
• International recruitment
• Pathway programs
• Working with the Alumni Office
