Pre-Conference Events
On the day before the main IATEFL Conference begins, Monday 7 April 2025, our Special Interest Groups (SIGs) organise a wide range of Pre-Conference Events.
These are self-contained one-day events focusing on a specific topic related to a SIG's field of interests, or a joint event run by several SIGs on a topic relevant to several areas of the profession.
Pre-Conference Events are a great way to start your conference week where you can focus one topic, and meet and interact with fellow professionals with the same areas of interest as you.
