Body | american council on the teaching of foreign languages ACTFL 6 Executive Plaza, Yonkers, NY 10701-6801 914.963.8830 FAX 914.963.1275 professionalprograms@actfl.org If you are a speaker of an African, Asian, Middle Eastern or Arabic language or dialect (or know someone who is) and are interested in earning money in your free time, conducting telephonic interviews in your language in support of the government's fight against terrorism, the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages (ACTFL) has a wonderful opportunity for you. The American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages (ACTFL) is recruiting native speakers of specific critical languages (please see list below of targeted languages) for training workshops to be held in Washington, D.C. on October 7-11, 2004 and October 13-17, 2004. A participant chooses to attend one of the two scheduled training workshops. A willingness to learn new skills and proficiency in the target languages equivalent to an educated native speaker are required. A good command of English is desired. Participants in this workshop are paid by ACTFL to attend the workshop and to complete the post workshop qualification process. Further benefits include becoming an oral proficiency tester for U.S. government testing - a status giving you the opportunity to make more money in the future by working for ACTFL from your home, on an as needed basis, on your own terms, and setting your own hours. Interested or know someone who is? Let us know by return email (professionalprograms@actfl.org) and we'll send you more information. But before we do, there is one caveat - all participants must either be U.S. citizens, permanent residents or have a 3-5 year Visa to work in the U.S. Thanks so much for your help with our search. We look forward to adding you to a network of foreign language speakers around the globe who are connected to and working for ACTFL .
