Professional Growth

FLAVA Teacher Workshop Series

The Foreign Language Teachers Workshop Series (FLTWS) continues across the Commonwealth in an effort to provide useful, professional development opportunities to as many Virginia world language educators as possible. The FLTWS is partnered with the Foreign Language Association of Virginia (FLAVA) through its Professional Development Network (PDN).

As is always the case, the FLAVA/FLTWS workshops can be used for receiving points toward K-12 teacher certification renewal at the discretion of the local school division with the presentation of the certificates, which participants receive after each workshop. For those at the post-secondary level in their teaching, participation in these workshops indicates a desire for self-improvement. Recognition of such by college and university administrators is congruent with necessary supplementary faculty activity and can be used in the reporting process.

Workshops are one-hour long and conducted via Zoom. If you have a suggestion for a topic or presenter for an upcoming FLAVA Workshop, please contact profdev@flavaweb.org.
