This month, following the CERC conference in Montreal and ahead of our special focus on Canada during November and December, we bring you analysis of the recent elections and the emerging relocation perspective.
A new global lettings report by Knight Frank confirms Relocate Global's view, that for families relocating around the world, finding the right school place is one of the top challenges. With parents increasingly looking ahead to university education when they pick a school, the Savills’ world student housing report makes interesting reading. HR and global mobility professionals have a tough job reassuring parents about such issues and the impact of mobility on children. To be fully informed about all aspects of education and schools across the globe, make sure you reserve your copy of the Relocate Global Guide to International Education & Schools published this autumn. And if you want to be included in the guide – it’s not too late – just click here for details.
Our Europe digital magazine 2015 will be available later this week online on our website, or as an app. To find all our latest apps, just search "Relocate Global" at the Apple iTunes App Store or the Google Play Shop. Or, if you're already a Relocate subscriber, you can get the latest content by logging into the app using your subscriber email address and the password “relocate”.
