IATEFL 2024 – Beurs voor leerkrachten
Regeling beurs Levende Talen, Sectie Engels voor IATEFL
Subsidy from Levende Talen, English section for IATEFL
For over 50 years, the International Association of Teachers of English as a Foreign Language, (IATEFL) has been linking, developing and supporting English language teaching professionals worldwide. From their humble origins in 1967 as a forum for English language teachers (ELT) and other professionals to make contact with one another and share ideas, they are now one of the largest and most internationally representative teaching associations in the world.
IATEFL is a global professional membership association, and yet they remain a community. They support teachers and other ELT professionals in their professional development, and provide a platform where they can offer their views, exchange research and teaching experiences and learn from each other. www.iatefl.org/about
Levende Talen is an organisation and trade union for language teachers. The English Section (sectiebestuur) promotes internationalisation and professional development of English teachers across all areas of education.
