What We Do

Our PD & Events

CASLT 40th Anniversary Celebrations

2010 marks the 40th anniversary of CASLT activities. This year, the association is "looking back, moving forward." A trivia quiz and archives review is underway and special events are planned for the fall. Read more on the 40 years of CASLT.

National Conferences

Since 1970, annual conferences or colloquiums have been held to bring together members from the Canadian Association of Language Teachers (CASLT). Each year, many second language teachers have a need to meet in a forum in which they may exchange pertinent ideas and become acquainted with research in the field.

In 2009, a new brand was launched for the biennial CASLT national conference for second language educators, Languages Without Borders.

Read more on the upcoming Languages Without Borders 2011 conference.

CASLT Supported Symposia and Colloquia

CASLT works in partnership with like-minded associations, such as the Canadian Association of Applied Linguistics (CAAL) and research centres, such as The Canadian Centre for Studies and Research on Bilingualism and Language Planning (CCERBAL) to support research-based symposia and colloquia.
