October 2022 Updates
Greetings ISEP community. We are pleased to share some exciting updates from ISEP’s activities over the past few months. Please also read on for ways to re-connect and share your ISEP experiences with others.
National Hispanic Heritage Month 2022
President and CEO John Lucas recently interviewed board member Hernán Fratto in commemoration of National Hispanic Heritage Month, which is celebrated annually between September 15th and October 15th. The importance of following your passions and not being afraid to take risks, as well as understanding that success looks different for everyone, featured among the themes touched upon in the conversation. You can watch the video by logging in to the resources section of the alumni portal.
Upcoming webinars
We are in the middle of planning exciting webinars that will talk about careers in international education, careers in international affairs, as well as a webinar designed for students who have recently completed their ISEP experience abroad and are thinking about next steps. Stay tuned for more information about those.
Volunteer to share Your story!
We are seeking alumni who are interested in being featured sharing your experiences from your time abroad. Your story could inspire others who may be on the fence to submit their applications and have the same life changing experiences as you had.
All volunteers are welcome, and we are especially eager to hear from alumni with the following identities: LGBTQIA+, older and student caregivers, first generation & low income, Black, Latino/a/e/x, indigenous, women, and non-U.S. citizen alumni!

In-person events
With local conditions continuing to improve around the world, we are planning alumni mixers in various cities, including Seoul, San Jose, Washington, D.C., and elsewhere in Northern California. Be on the lookout for more information about those. If you are interested in an alumni event in your city and are able to help set one up, reach out and we can discuss it with you.
In Case You Missed It: Take the alumni engagement survey!
ISEP launched an alumni engagement survey in August to get a sense of the types of activities you would like to participate in. If you haven’t taken it yet, there is still time. Click here to take the survey.
