We organize a series of Continuing Professional Development workshops (CPD), in accordance with the Continuing Professional Development Framework which provide useful personal and professional development for teachers in all contexts: primary, secondary and adult.  

All the workshops are suitable for teachers with a B1 language level and they are relevant at any stage in a teacher’s career. Participants engage in a variety of motivating activities which they are encouraged to adapt for their own classes. In Iaşi, CPD workshops are organised in partnership with Inspectoratul Școlar Iași și Casa Corpului Didactic "Spiru Haret" Iași.
