THE FOURTH QUADRENNIAL INTERNATIONAL INTERVISITATION PROGRAM IN EDUCATIONAL ADMINISTRATION

Preparations are well advanced for the fourth International Intervisitation Program which will be held in Canada through May 5–25, 1978. [Previous Programs were held in the U.S.A. (1966), Australia (1970) and the U.K. (1974).] The purpose of the fourth IIP is (a) to enable leading practitioners and scholars of educational administration from many countries to exchange information and ideas and (b) to enable visitors from around the world to examine closely the education systems in the host country, particularly from the point of view of administration and policy making. The Program will be divided into three periods—orientation in Montreal, visitation to two of a dozen or more nominated sites and a concluding conference in Vancouver. The organizing committee, representing each of the five major regions of Canada, expects 150 people from approximately 30 countries to participate.
