Events and Programs

The Bureau of Consular Affairs offers monthly webinars, regional programs, and events to congressional members and their staff.

Regional programs

We offer single-day and multi-day programs throughout the United States. You can expect to meet with experts in the field of immigration and international travel so that you can leave with a better understanding of our services. 

Most programs include a site visit:

  • Regional consular training includes a visit to a passport agency.
  • On a cross-border trip, you will likely visit a passport agency, border crossing, and U.S. consulate in Mexico or Canada.
