The American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages will be holding summer workshops on its Oral Proficiency Interviews at three locations this summer.

The first will be June 7-10 at Brigham Young University. Languages available are Chinese, English, French, German, Spanish, Japanese, and Russian.

The second will be July 25-28 at the Ohio State University. Language available are Arabic, English/Mixed languages, French, and Spanish.

Both of the above are 4-day workshops for the full OPI: a four-day professional development workshop designed to introduce language educators to the Oral Proficiency Interview (OPI), the ACTFL rating scale, and the techniques for conducting and rating oral proficiency interviews.

The third workshop is for the Modified OPI, which is an intensive two-day introduction to the techniques of administering and rating the Oral Proficiency Interview at the Novice and Intermediate levels. It will take place July 18-19 in Glastonbury, Connecticut.
