A workshop to share good practice and give the most up-to-date information on all aspects of managing accommodation – homestay and residential.

The emphasis will be on how the provision can gain 'strengths' in a British Council inspection.

"Participants coming out of the Cert SSM know how to be well organised, meet deadlines and communicate well. It really is an investment in a person and their career," says Diane Phillips, a British Council inspector and Cert SSM trainer.

Student statistics, a panel discussion about Brexit opportunities and an explorer who claims to have eaten his own dog were among the highlights of the biggest-ever English UK Annual Conference.

From inspection preparation and course management to achieving a healthy work-life balance and creating an enviromentally friendly UK ELT industry, we are pleased to release details of our round table discussions at the upcoming Annual Conference on Thursday 23 May.

In recognition of Mental Health Awareness Week, we have compiled advice from speakers at the English UK Academic Conference to better understand the wellbeing of staff and students.
