Switzerland Affiliate: Preparing your Student for the University Transition

FIGT Switzerland is happy to invite you to attend a complimentary "taster" presentation by Tina Quick, third culture kid (TCK) expert and author of “The Global Nomad’s Guide to University Transition.”

PREPARING YOUR STUDENT FOR THE UNIVERSITY TRANSITION

March 24, 2014 from 5.30pm to 7.00pm
Room A1, Fédération des Entreprises Romandes, r. de Saint-Jean 98, 1201 Genève
Register by March 17, 2014 at Switzerland@figt.org

This session would be of interest to those who:

• work with expat students,
• have their own global nomads who will be repatriating soon or making the university transition,
•  work in schools or organizations to help globally mobile families transition well.

With grateful thanks to our event sponsor

About our speaker: Tina, a popular international speaker, is passionate about helping students make the adjustment out of the expatriate culture - whether it is to return to their home country or to move on to another host country for the college or university experience. She will be speaking about the unique gifts children acquire from their globally mobile childhoods as well as the challenges they face when stepping out of the expatriate culture. She will also begin the discussion on how parents can help prepare them and come alongside them in this double transition.

This presentation is a prelude to a full program of workshops and talks Tina will be offering in Ferney Voltaire later that week. Registration to those workshops is required at:  http://internationalfamilytransitions.com/index.php?option=com_easyblog&view=latest&Itemid=197
