Please join the Berkeley International Group (BIG) on Tuesday, November 19th from 4-6pm at Edmond’s Cafe at International House at UC Berkeley (2299 Piedmont Ave) for an informal networking and social hour during International Education Week.
UC Berkeley’s international education staff professionals (and enthusiasts!) are invited to connect and network with peers. Mochi donuts & muffins from Third Culture Bakery will be provided by the Berkeley International Group staff organization (sponsored by People & Culture) and drinks are on your own. Edmond’s has also generously offered our staff organization $2 off your purchase of food or drink (excluding non-alcoholic drinks) and $3 beer. Staff will also have the opportunity to play a “find someone who” international education bingo game to get to know colleagues - winners will receive a Third Culture Bakery gift card!
A joint initiative of the U.S. Department of State and the U.S. Department of Education, International Education Week (IEW) 2024, November 18-22, is an opportunity for colleges, universities, embassies, and other organizations to celebrate the benefits of international education and exchange worldwide.
The Berkeley International Group is a recognized Staff Organization Community of Practice offering networking, professional development, and collaboration for UC Berkeley staff and faculty interested in international education. BIG is open to all UC Berkeley staff with a passion for (or interest in) international education, including those working in international student services, student exchanges, global engagement, international program development, area studies - and more!
