A Second Language Acquisition Certificate Program for LCTL Instructors

As interest in Less Commonly Taught Languages (LCTL) learning and teaching increases, so does the need to prepare graduate students, teaching assistants who are planning to pursue LCTL teaching as a profession and faculty members in the field who need retooling. The 2013 NALRC Summer Institute, which takes place May 20-31, 2013, has been designed to help meet this need. It will train fellows in a number of crucial areas central to the effective operation of an LCTL Program.

Applicants should submit a letter of application and supporting documents for the 2013 Summer Institute by November 16, 2012. Applicants will be notified of selection by November 30, 2012. Supporting documents include:

 -a CV
 -two letters of recommendation indicating the importance of the training for the applicant. (One of the letters must be from the executive officer of the applicant's home department or LCTL studies program, or Program's Language Coordinator.)

You can submit your application and supporting documents, or direct questions to nalrc at indiana dot edu. This program will be hosted at Indiana University.
