The 6th CamTESOL Conference on English Language Teaching will be held on 27-28 February 2010 at the National Institute of Education.  The theme of the 2010 conference will be “One World: World Englishes.”

The format of the conference will include presentations from invited international plenary speakers and contributed papers and workshops in around 20 streams aimed at encouraging more interactive participation from delegates.

This national event is of relevance to anyone involved in the education sector.  The advertising packages below provide excellent opportunities for direct access to roughly 1,200 delegates who regularly attend this conference.  Sponsorship for Government teachers from the provinces and final year trainee teachers is strongly encouraged, as these teachers are the least privileged participants in the conference.  The conference aims to achieve sponsorship for at least 100 high school teachers from the provinces each year.
