AAUSC - ACTFL Travel/Professional Development Grant

The goals of the American Association of University Supervisors and Coordinators (AAUSC) are to:

•  strengthen and improve foreign language curricula and instruction at the university level;
•  strengthen professional development programs for teaching assistants/teaching fellows/associate instructors, or their equivalents, hereafter referred to as TAs;
•  establish a forum for the exchange of ideas, experiences, and materials among those concerned with TA training; and
•  promote research on the training and supervision of TAs.

In keeping with this mission, the AAUSC offers a limited number of travel/professional development grants to members who wish to attend the annual convention of the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages (ACTFL), which is held each November. The grant covers up to $500 and can be used to pay the conference fee to attend ACTFL, and travel or lodging expenses.

DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSION OF APPLICATION: EXTENDED TO May 15, 2014
