Before you decide

What institutions ask at this stage

We have never recruited in Vietnam. Where should we start?

Start free: list your institution in the VNIS directory so Vietnamese families and agents can find you. Then join one event — a single city of Global Connect Vietnam or USA Partner Connect — to test real demand before committing to representation.

Event or agent channel first?

An event is the fastest way to judge fit: you meet fifty counsellors in a day and hear what they can actually sell. Institutions that see traction usually move to Master Agent representation afterwards, with the relationships already warm.

Can a U.S. institution join both events?

Yes, and many will: September 2026 to open the agent channel, March 2027 to widen it into Central Vietnam through Da Nang.

We cannot travel this year. Are we out?

No. VNIS-represented participation (from US$950) runs your table at either event, and the VRC gives you a permanent local contact point without sending anyone.

How do we decide with real numbers?

Tell us your target level, subjects and intake through the form below. VNIS responds with a market read for your specific profile — where you would compete in Vietnam, and where you would not.
