What's included?

I genuinely believe nothing beats the quality of CPD offered by the PTI. It’s a chance to re-engage with your subject and it reminds you of the value and power of teaching excellent lessons.

This was simply the most inspirational CPD I’ve attended in 12 years! Excellent information, speakers and guidance.

This course has enabled me, and everyone I have engaged with to fall back in love with the subject and rediscover the values that can so easily be lost in this profession.

This has to be the best immersive English CPD I’ve EVER attended. And I’ve been teaching 24 years! Incredibly useful.

It’s nice to think about my subject as part of my role rather than just data, pedagogy, texts. It gives me the opportunity to draw threads through what I’m doing.
