New online Certificate of Continuing Education in Italian The University of Strathclyde has launched a new online version (commencing September 2025) of their long-established Certificate of Continuing Education (CCEd) in Italian. This is essentially a degree ‘bolt-on’, with the core modules from Year 1-3 of the undergraduate programme in Italian. Completion of Years 1-2 alone is sufficient in terms of credits for practising secondary teachers of other languages in Scotland (and probably elsewhere) to provisionally register in Italian.
This looks a really interesting venture which is certainly worth checking out and recommending. Full details HERE Translation Competitions Stephen Spender Prize
"The prize is the leading annual prize for poetry in translation, with categories for pupils, teachers and individual young people in the UK and Ireland, as well as an Open category for adults from all over the world." Open for entries on 1st May until 31st July. This wonderful collection of Modern Italian Art in North London offers learning programmes designed for students from Key Stages 1-5, including exclusive self-guided visits, workshops, resources, CPD events for teachers and Teachers' Private Views.
School visits happen on Mondays and Tuesdays when the Collection is closed to the public and students will have exclusive access to the collection. |
