Never let COVID-19 stop faculty learning EMI Skills!

Dear faculty members,

In January 2020, we received positive feedback and recommendation from participants for the face-to-face Workshop on Academic Teaching Excellence co-developed by British Council and Oxford University, UK, so we planned to have another one in July 2020. However, due to the global outbreak of COVID-19, multiple events or gatherings have been cancelled or put off to avoid human-to-human transmission.  In order not to let COVID-19 stop faculty learning, instead we offer online courses provided by Cambridge Assessment English, part of Cambridge University, UK, and the course participants should form a learning community to learn, interact, and progress with each other together.

Would you like to learn how to offer EMI courses?  Welcome to sign up the program on Certificate in EMI Skills as soon as possible!
