ACTFL is proud to present the first ever Proficiency Assessments Summer Institute hosted by Brigham Young University. ACTFL is offering a diverse range of workshops to better meet the growing demand for newly certified testers and raters across assessments and certifications.

The benefits of participation in these workshops are many. As a result of these professional development experiences, educators are better able to:

 apply key principles of teaching and testing for proficiency to curriculum, instruction, and assessment practices.
 establish program goals in terms of performance outcomes.
 determine student placement, progress, and performance.
 articulate within and across language programs.
 become eligible to apply for OPI or WPT certification.
 become eligible to apply for certification advancement (limited to full).

OPI assessment workshops will be offered June 17-20 for the following languages: Chinese, English, French, German, Japanese, Russian, and Spanish.
A MOPI assessment workshop will be offered June 19-20 for English/mixed language.
