Student Volunteer at International Conference


Information
Thank you for your interest in volunteering at the 19th Annual KOTESOL International Conference. The success of the conference depends on people just like you!

Here's why you should volunteer:
  • It's an opportunity to use English in an authentic environment
  • You'll get a free t-shirt, and some free food for each shift you work
  • It is an opportunity to work with other students, other teachers, and a number of international guests
  • You will receive an official Certificate of Completion and Appreciation
  • It is an opportunity to learn guest service skills, and learn real world skills at a major international event
  • It is an opportunity to spend an amazing time with lots of interesting people.
Requirements:
  1. Complete the application form in English by 1st October 2011.
  2. You must provide your own transportation to the conference and your own housing accommodations during the event.
  3. You must attend a training session 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. on Saturday, October 8th, 2011, unless you have spoken with and been excused by the Student Volunteer Coordinators (Mike Peacock and Rodney Stubbs).
  4. This volunteering opportunity is very competitive, so the more times that you can be available the greater chance you have of being selected for the jobs you want.
  5. In order to receive an official Certificate of Completion and Appreciation, you must complete a minimum of two (2) work shifts (Saturday or Sunday) PLUS either the setup shift on Friday night or teardown shift on Sunday evening.
Your application will be judged on several things, not just English ability. We are looking for volunteers with good "people skills" who can respond quickly in unexpected situations. We are also looking for people who can devote all or most of their time during the weekend. Being available to work four shifts is more valuable to us that working only one shift.
Complete the application form in English by 1st October 2011, FOr more Info !
