PRESENTER PROPOSAL INFORMATION

The CLTA Conference is California's major opportunity for world language teachers to learn new techniques and activities, to meet and share with colleagues across the state, to network, to find out what is going on in California and to see new materials (in the Exhibit Hall) and attend exhibitor sessions, where they demonstrate some of the materials they sell. It's an exciting, motivating, and meaningful experience and you are part of that experience. Thank you again for sharing your expertise and knowledge with your colleagues across the state.

CLTA continues to meet guidance from local & state public officials as COVID and its variants are still a health hazard for the elderly and the immune-compromised. CLTA suggests that masks be worn in crowded indoor public places and that personal space be respected. Carefully Read the Proposal Information & the Terms and Conditions documents BEFORE submitting a proposal to present at the CLTA 2027 Annual Conference.

We appreciate your willingness to share your knowledge at our annual conference.
