OVERVIEW
IOHSK is pleased to announce its 5th International Conference, “Cultivating Healthy Physically Active Lifestyles”. We invite faculty, researchers, students, teachers, and other professionals to participate in this four-day conference. It will be held from Saturday, October 1st through Tuesday, October 4th at Hyatt Place in Las Vegas.
A hybrid format will be used to enhance the conference experience via both in-person and virtual conference participants.
All special presentations and a few regular sessions in Las Vegas will be streamed to the virtual audience. We are trying to redefine what a virtual meeting experience can be by marrying the best aspects of an in-person meeting with the benefits afforded by a virtual meeting. IOHSK will strive to make our meetings accessible to our members in countries or regions who may find it difficult to come to Las Vegas or the USA. The hybrid meetings make it possible for members anywhere in the world to attend and participate.

INTRODUCTION & BENEFITS
Based on the success of previous conferences, we will be hosting the International Conference for 2022 that will be held on October 1-4 in a hybrid platform. The theme for 2022 International Virtual Conference is “Cultivating Healthy Physically Active Lifestyles”. You are cordially invited to submit a proposal for the 2022 IOHSK’s International Conference. Our commitment is to maximize the exposure and impact of our research members. The mission of IOHSK is to promote intellectual dialogues among scholars, researchers, educators, and practitioners in health, sports, and kinesiology through research that examines critical theories and issues of the field and offers implications for educational practice and development. Presenting at the IOHSK International Virtual Conference provides an opportunity to build your professional network and experience lifelong learning with lifelong colleagues. Presenting a content-rich in-person/virtual session individually or as part of a team is a wonderful way to share knowledge, experiences, and ideas. We, IOHSK, pride ourselves on the global diversity of our research members! Please share your voice, in-person, or online by submitting a proposal.

TRAVEL INFORMATION
Visa Information & Invitation Letters
The organizers of the 5th International Conference encourage you to familiarize yourself with Visa and travel requirements well in advance of the conference. Visitors to the United States must have a valid passport. A Visa is also required for citizens of countries that do not participate with the Visa Waiver Program. The process may take 3 to 4 months to obtain a Visa.
Disclaimer
Please note that the information provided here is given in good faith, but that the regulations may change and
the only authoritative sources of information are the U.S. Government websites.
- Visa applicants are expected to provide evidence that they are intending to return to their country of residence. Applicants should provide proof of “binding” ties to their residence abroad such as documentation of the following: family ties in home country or country of legal permanent residence, property ownership, bank accounts, employment contract or statement from employer showing that position will continue after the visit to the United States;
- Visa applications are more likely to be successful if done in a visitor’s home country than in a third country;
- Applicants should present their entire trip itinerary, including travel to any countries other than the United States, at the time of their visa application;
- Include a letter of invitation from the meeting organizer or the U.S. host, specifying the subject, location and dates of the activity.
- Provide specifics on how travel and local expenses will be covered;
- If completion of travel plans is contingent upon early approval of the visa application, specify this at the time of the application; and
- Provide proof of professional scientific and/or educational status (students should provide a university transcript).
- NOTE: The proof of purchase of an airline ticket is not an item requested by the embassy to document your trip itinerary. No assurances regarding the issuance of visas can be given in advance, so the purchase of a non-refundable airlines ticket should be made after a visa has been issued and you are in possession of a passport.
- Request a Letter of Invitation by email at office@iohsk.org. The letter of invitation should be requested after your proposal is accepted.
