IATEFL Associates eBulletin

Dear PAET,

The festive season of December is now over and we welcome a new year - 2019, drawing us closer to the Liverpool conference. There are quite a few events happening in the IATEFL WORLD before April so please take a moment and check below to see if any of them draw your attention.

As always, we would ask you to ensure that we have the correct key contact information for your association. This can be found once you log in to your Associate membership but are also listed on the IATEFL website - List of Associate Members.

I look forward to hearing from you.

With best wishes,

Marta Bujakowska
IATEFL Associates Committee Member

Wider Membership Scheme (WMS)

The WMS bids will open soon, so keep a look out for your association's bidding invitation, which will be emailed out later this month.

The WMS was set up to help the international ELT community reach out to teachers in parts of the world who need additional financial support. This aims to provide teachers access to professional development opportunities that may otherwise be beyond their means.

To find out more about this scheme, visit the IATEFL website.
