REALise your potential! | Iasi, Romania: 4-6 June 2010

The seminar - REALise your potential! - is aimed at the leaders of language teacher associations across Europe. The event will provide a unique opportunity to bring associations together, giving us the opportunity to discuss and share ways in which we can make our associations as attractive as possible to potential members.

By the end of the seminar, participants will share a clearer vision of language association practices across Europe, as well as many concrete ideas about how to enhance the work of our organisations.

The seminar will be held in the historic town of Iasi in the north-east of Romania, offering a great chance for you to visit this vibrant region at the heart of Eastern Europe.
