In April, I was lucky enough to go to IATEFL for the first time, which was held in Brighton in the UK. It was a fantastic experience, and I was especially pleased with all of the sessions geared toward teacher training and development. I got a chance to meet lots of CELTA trainers and other folks working in CPD (Continuing Professional Development). If you are interested in seeing some of the sessions, they are available for free (!) at the following British Council website: https://www.teachingenglish.org.uk/events/IATEFL-Online/2018 One of the things that struck me the most while at IATEFL is how little people knew of SIT or our certificate programs. They were interested to talk to me, but simply had never heard of it. For this reason, I was especially pleased to see that Kevin Giddens and Susan Barduhn recently published an extensive article in the Teacher Trainer magazine about our TOT process. I'm attaching the article below for your perusal. Thank you, Susan and Kevin! What ideas does the article bring up for you? What are other ways of letting people around the world know about the good work we do on SIT Courses? It'd be great to hear your comments/ideas below. Hope you are doing well! Josh
