Teacher Training and Professional Development
NATECLA supports an active, innovative community of ESOL teacher trainers which is represented by the NATECLA Teacher Training Working Party.
The Teacher Training Working Party
- supports and contributes to the development of ESOL teaching qualifications
- brings teacher trainers together to share practice, resources and ideas
- participates in national debate about teacher education and training
The working party meets three times a year and offers workshops and events at NATECLA conferences.
