Dear [Approval’s Name],
I am writing to request your approval to attend the International School Marketing & Admissions Conference (ISMAC) 2026, which will be held at Bangkok Marriott Hotel Sukhumvit from 8-9 May 2026
This conference is designed for marketing and admissions personnel in international schools who are eager to further develop their professional skills. This event will help us to discover the latest trends and insights that can elevate strategies in enhancing our customer journey, helping us to convert potential customers into active participants of our school community.
The conference features a globally renowned expert – Ewan McIntosh from NoTosh as the keynote speaker on the first day of conference, plus he will be leading a pre-conference on The Brand Strategy Audit, a one-day workshop that I am highly interested to attend too.
On top of that, the two days features conference sessions on topics such as:
- School Marketing & Brand
- Data Management: Collection, Reporting & Privacy
- Enrollment & Retention
- Community & Alumni Relations
- Communications
- Social Media
- Technology Enablement
- Structural Improvements
- Understanding & Unlocking the Mainland China Market
I believe that attending this conference would be a valuable professional development opportunity for me. I would have the opportunity to learn from some of the world’s leading experts, and I would be able to bring back new ideas and strategies that I could use in school.
Here is a quick breakdown of the costs to cover our attendance to the conference:
