CPD for French Teachers

teach432

The French Embassy is running CPD courses for French teachers over the mid-term this month. There are day-long courses being run in Dublin, Cork and Limerick.

I don't know if I'm allowed to link to the info sheet online.... but there is no info whatsoever regarding how to book into it. I have contacted the education centre concerned who said to contact the embassy. The embassy's website provides several contact numbers none of which match up with the topic of French teacher training and there is no mention of it on the website itself.

Does anyone have any information on this?? Thanks!

Has anyone been to this conference this week and if so was it useful?

vamos!

I would also like to know if this is any good. I'm away this week and can't go but maybe next year if it's good!

It's a pity they didn't do a video conference.

I attended this conference yesterday in Limerick. It was very enjoyable! It was so nice to meet a group of French teachers, to be exposed to the French language for the day and I definitely gained some practical ideas that I will try out in the classroom.

Hopefully there will be more of these courses offered to French teachers over the coming months.

I attended in Cork. I thought it was an excellent day. It's rare to come away from a CPD course will so many practical ideas that can be easily used on a daily basis. I look forward to the next one.
