CSW MISSION STATEMENT​​

​

Communication Skills Workshops (CSWs) are organised annually or biannually by the CSW Committee, a volunteer group of members. The target group consists of teachers working in Language Centres of Finnish and Estonian universities or in comparable institutions. Our working language is English, but teachers of other languages, and skills, are more than welcome; indeed, they are encouraged to attend! Our workshops explore specialized themes related to the current needs of language teachers. They combine presentations by invited plenary speakers with practical hands-on workshops. Separate themes are considered at each workshop and are based on suggestions from CSW participants. The CSW Committee is an autonomous body that has the active support of the Council of Directors of Finnish Language Centres. The CSW is an entirely non-profit organisation; the committee members derive no economic benefit from their positions.​

​

The 30th Communication Skills Workshop will take place on 28-29 November 2024 at Tallinn University of Technology and it will also be possible to participate online using the Zoom platform.  

​

The theme is “The Future of Language Learning and Teaching”.
