Speaker: Call for presentation proposals open until Sept 18

Kinjo Gakuin University in Nagoya welcomes the JALT Study Abroad SIG conference back for a second year under the theme "Expanding Horizons: New Frontiers in Study Abroad and Language Learning." In this relaxed setting, attendees will share success stories, tackle challenges, and spark new ideas in program design, classroom instruction, and research. Presentations and hands-on workshops will showcase inventive approaches, and you can cap off the day with a traditional Nagoya welcome dinner and an opportunity to build lasting collaborative relationships. Whether you coordinate overseas programs, teach language courses, or explore intercultural learning, you'll leave energized with practical strategies and new connections. We look forward to collaborating with you as we explore new frontiers in study-abroad and language education.
