Supporting International Students' Transition to Face-to-Face Learning |
|
English proficiency tests are not an endpoint in the language journey of non-native English speaking international students.

This is even more true as colleges and universities are welcoming continuing international students to campus for the first time. Join us for a panel discussion on this topic and learn from experts in the field how your campus can support international students’ transition to face-to-face learning.
