SUMMARY:16th AzETA International Conference
DESCRIPTION:We are proud to continue introducing our esteemed partners for the 16th AzETA International Conference! \n\n\nAs in previous years\, the British Council in Azerbaijan  stands as one of our key partners for this flagship event\, which will take place on 24–25 August 2026 at ADA University . This year\, they will once again enrich the conference programme by bringing an inspiring plenary speaker to share global expertise and insights with our ELT community. \n\n\nOur collaboration with the British Council spans many successful years\, built on shared values of quality education and professional development. Together\, we have implemented numerous impactful initiatives. Most recently\, during the last academic year\, we successfully delivered the TeachingEnglish Content Localisation Project \, with a special focus on climate action — empowering teachers to integrate global challenges into their classrooms.\n\n\nWe are also delighted to introduce Tatjana Slijepcevic\, Wider Europe Regional English Connects Lead at the British Council\, who warmly invites educators to join us at this year’s conference.  Her message highlights the importance of collaboration\, innovation\, and continuous professional growth in today’s evolving educational landscape.

SUMMARY:Diversify\, Retain\, Repeat: How Experienced ESL Teachers Build Career Stability
DESCRIPTION:Most English teachers know what career instability feels like. A platform changes its pay structure. A school contract doesn’t renew. A steady private student moves on. When your income depends on one source\, one change can disrupt everything. \nIn this BridgeVoices webinar\, experienced teachers share how they’ve built more resilient careers by diversifying where and how they teach\, and by developing the retention strategies that keep each income stream stable. This isn’t about hustling harder or adding more to your plate. It’s about making intentional choices about where you invest your time\, and then building the systems and teaching relationships that make those choices sustainable. \nWhether you’re teaching on a platform\, at a school\, working independently\, or combining all three\, you’ll leave with a clearer picture of how to reduce your dependence on any single source and practical strategies for keeping the students you already have. \nWhat You’ll Learn:\n• Why relying on one platform\, employer\, or income stream creates career fragility\n• How experienced teachers have diversified across teaching contexts without burning out\n• Specific retention strategies that keep students engaged and coming back across any teaching format\n• How the right tools and systems support both diversification and retention\n• A practical framework for evaluating your own career stability and identifying your next move
