This two-day workshop trains prospective program reviewers for the ACTFL/NCATE Program Standards for the Preparation of Foreign Language Teachers. Participants become familiar with the Standards and will learn how to evaluate institutional program reports for evidence that the Standards have been achieved. They engage in hands-on work in analyzing candidate performance evidence, required program components, and the program assessment system, as well as use program reviewer rubrics, in order to make program approval decisions and prepare the program reviewer report for submission to ACTFL and NCATE.

This workshop is open only to those who have applied or plan to apply to be ACTFL/NCATE Program Reviewers. The application for program reviewers can be accessed here. This workshop is offered immediately before the ACTFL Annual Meeting in November. There is no registration fee for the workshop. ACTFL is unable to provide funds for travel, lodging, or meals.
