Is current teacher training provision fit for purpose?

IH London’s founder pushed boundaries and developed the first teacher training qualification in 1962, which went on to become the CELTA we know today.

However, the world today is not the world of 1962. How much has the industry evolved to meet the ever-changing needs of the global market?

Through our keynotes and workshops, we will explore some of the biggest issues facing the teacher training industry today, as seen from the point of view of trainees, trainers, management, school directors, and key industry stakeholders.

Our selection of speakers will incorporate teachers, teacher trainers, academic directors, school directors and key stakeholders in the teacher training industry. Together we will explore the future direction of the industry of teacher training from an academic and commercial perspective and seek answers to the questions: what do teachers and teacher trainers need now, what will they need in the future, and are our current courses delivering that? How can we ensure we are continually innovating and developing our existing courses to meet the changing needs of the teacher training market?
