On November 9 and 10, 2018, the researchers and practitioners group SPRACHE.TESTEN at the Ruhr-University Bochum is hosting a symposium on the subject of  "Assessing Academic Language Proficiency and Languages for Specific Academic Purposes: Bringing together School and Higher Education Activities"

The Cambridge Introductory Seminar is designed to introduce teachers and principals as effectively as possible to the Cambridge English Examinations and their preparation in combination with Lehrplan 21 in one or two days. The aim of this introductory seminar is that the school and the teachers have the necessary knowledge to successfully prepare their students within the school structure for the Cambridge English exam.

This British Council IELTS training day has four workshops. Each workshop focuses on teaching techniques for one of the four main skills in the academic version of IELTS to help students achieve high score bands. The workshops will be practical and concentrate specifically on skills acquisition, rather than a description of exam content, and will give participants tools for integrating exam preparation elements in their English lessons

When it comes to the Lehrplan 21 there is a lot to talk about. In this free 1-hour online workshop we address all relevant aspects of the Lehrplan 21 and their relevance to Cambridge English for Schools.
