- October 2, 2023: Application Notified (by 23:59 AoE)
Application Instructions:
To apply to be a student volunteer, please sign up at the ISS SV Portal.
Benefits and Duties:
If you are an ISS Student Volunteer, you get:
- Free conference registration
- Free SV T-shirt
- A great SV party with free dinner
- Unique opportunities to meet and network with senior members of the community.
Student volunteers will be required to help set up and perform needed work during the conference.
Duties include: registration desk, AV assistance, poster and demo setup, badge checking, break monitoring, etc. Volunteers will also need to be available during the conference if tasks come up. SVs usually get to attend most of the sessions, even when working. There will be approximately 12 scheduled hours per SV.
Arriving and Leaving
SVs need to be available to help throughout the conference. You will need to arrive on or before Saturday afternoon (Nov. 4) for the SV orientation and should not leave the conference venue until sessions end on Wednesday (Nov. 8). Also, we strongly encourage you to put off leaving until as late as you possibly can, because it’s traditional to have a small party for student volunteers on Wednesday evening. The time and place for this party will be announced when we know all the student volunteers’ travel plans.
Accommodation
We will not be able to provide free accommodation, but we will help you team up with other student volunteers for sharing rooms and we will provide a list of hotels with affordable room rates.
