EC2012 takes place in Braunschweig, Germany, on the 13th till 17th June 2012. But what is EC2012? It's a chance for nearly 2,000 members to meet other members from across Europe and further afield. It's your opportunity to receive quality, comprehensive training; listen to experts during personal development sessions and socialise every night at some of the best parties you will ever attend. For more information about the conference and the event programme please click here.

JCI UK will ensure that all members are well looked after while in Braunschweig. We have block booked a hotel close to the conference centre and we will be organising a JCI UK welcome evening so members can meet each other at the beginning of the week. In addition, there will of course be the obligatory JCI UK conference t-shirt!

For those that have never attended a big international JCI event, I can guarantee you will have a memorable time and will meet some great people from across the globe.

So what are you waiting for? Some of you may qualify for contribution or a bursary towards the cost of attending. Please contact your local president for more information.
