The Educatio - International Trade Fair for Education continues to grow as the leading event to promote international studies to an ardent audience of students. The next event with take place in Budapest, Hungary on the 22-23 January 2010. It is one of the most momentous annual meetings for Hungarian educators across the country and increasingly from overseas. Besides the national and foreign higher education institutions, companies and other organisations related to education will also participate in the Trade Fair.

Thanks to the written material offered at the exhibiting stands, the presentations and the professional lectures, the visitors will have the opportunity to familiarise themselves with the specific features of each institution: during the two days of the Trade Fair, we expect that more than 40,000 visitors will come and gather information about the content of training courses, academic programmes and admission requirements.

Following the practice of the past years, the EDUCATIO in 2010 will be dedicated not only to the opportunities of the continuation of studies in Hungary, abroad and the changes in the national higher education system, but also to the companies that are - in one way or another - related to education. Therefore, besides the universities and colleges, the school equipment producers, the textbook publishers, the institutions dealing with professional learning, the language schools and the companies dealing with quality assurance will be also represented at the event.

The importance of the Educatio Trade Fair for the students, the parents and the educational decision-makers is given by the fact that it makes them possible to get all the necessary information at the same time, in the same place: the students taking an entrance examination in the near future can inquire about the chances and the opportunities to take the entrance exam, while the decision-makers can inquire about the available tenders and the school equipment supply.

The Ministry of Education and Culture, in collaboration with the Educatio Kht., will organise the EDUCATIO 2010 International Trade Fair for Education.
