We can’t wait to host you on an exciting Teacher Convention! These events are special experiences, and it’s important to us that all of our teachers have a common understanding and access to participate.

All Teacher Conventions have limited availability and will fill up well in advance of the trip dates.

Convention reservations are first come, first served, and are pending availability. Qualification is based on (1) adequate Reward Points and (2) a future tour booked with WorldStrides. Once redeemed, Rewards Points may not be used for other promotional rewards.

Guests are able to join the event if you have the necessary Reward Points available, as listed above. Guests must be 18 or older at the time of travel on most events, unless indicated otherwise in the trip details above.

While we always do our best to deliver the events as they are promoted, itineraries and dates of teacher conventions are subject to change.
