    IATEFL has around 70 Associates - the exact number changes from week to week. An Associate is another Teacher Association that has entered into a mutually beneficial relationship with IATEFL. Increasingly, though, the real benefit of becoming an Associate lies in linking up to a network of teacher associations all over the world, and through this, a network of language educators all over the world.

    Here is how this network functions. IATEFL provides the structure, creates a forum for its Associates to communicate. Then it's up to the Teacher Associations to make the most of this - to use the electronic, printed, and face-to-face mediums for meaningful communication. So if you're not an Associate, read on to find out what benefits joining might bring to your members, and what ways there are in which YOU and YOUR MEMBERS can reach out to English teachers all over the world. And if you have already become an Associate, please use the existing channels of communication - and let us know if you have any suggestions for changes and improvements.

    General Guidelines for Scholarships

    IATEFL is providing an increasing number of different scholarhships for English language teaching professionals. so you need to read carefully both these general guidelines and the specific conditions for each scholarship you wish to apply for. We're sorry but if you don't keep to the conditions and deadlines yours scholarship applications cannot be considered. Our scholarship deadline is usually in September each year. This year it is18th September 2009. But please note that:

    • BESIG Conference Scholarships have a July deadline and are for attendance at the BESIG conference in the autumn. They are not for the main conference
    • Consultants-E Online IATEFL Scholarship also has different deadlines and you can win a course not a conference attendance
    • John Haycraft Classroom Exploration Scholarships have a different deadline, June 3rd 2010 for the Brighton Conference 2011
    • you cannot win the same scholarship twice
    • and if you have won a scholarship already, you cannot apply for another award until 3 conferences have passed

    If you are applying for more than one scholarship, you only need to send one photograph. If you are a winner, this photograph will be printed in the conference brochure and on the scholars' poster. So, while we ask for a passport-sized photo, it shouldn't be passport-glum.

    Many scholarships now include as part of the award a year's IATEFL membership. If you are already a member and you win one of these awards, the payment will cover your next year's membership.

    All applicants for each scholarship will be informed by email of the result of the selection procedure at the stated date. So, stand by for the news and if you are a winner, let us know immediately whether or not you will accept the award.

    If you are a winner, we will discuss details of how the award is to be paid once you have confirmed your acceptance. Most of the award is paid at conference but a proportion can be paid in advance to help with your travel costs.

    Please scroll down for details of all the individual scholarships.
