International Association for the Exchange of Students for Technical Experience Report of the General Secretary This report is a summary of the exchange activities between IAESTE Members and Co-operating Institutions during 2005. The details of these exchanges are presented in the 2005 IAESTE Activity Report published in November 2005. The exchange took place between 79 Members and Co-operating Institutions from 78 countries and 17 non- Member countries. Exchange Development in 2005 The total number of trainees exchanged in 2005 was 4838, an increase of just over 1.3% from 2004 and hopefully this trend will continue during the current year. Half of the Members and Co-operating Institutions managed to increase their number of traineeships to incoming students and this was very encouraging. Several countries made a significant increase in the number of placements offered to incoming students, notably, Brazil, Greece, Poland, Spain and Serbia and Montenegro.
