The American Association of Teachers of Spanish and Portuguese and co-sponsors work together to provide  AATSP members with professional development opportunities.

 

During the academic year AATSP and co-sponsors offer webinars on current  topics of interest to instructors of Spanish. These webinars help instructors  create new curricular offerings, utilize new instructional strategies, and design new assessments.  In addition, the webinars present up-to-date information on standards,  education policies, and international trends as they relate to the teaching of Spanish.

 

The AATSP is currently working with several partners to offer new professional development webinars throughout the year.
