For those of us in the northern hemisphere, I hope you’ve enjoyed your summer holiday! For most, this is the time to prepare for our most intense and busiest period: the start of the new academic year!

If you can manage to fit anything else in between level testing, staff meetings and setting up new groups and courses, ELT institutions are making the most of our renewed energy after the break with a bumper crop of CPD opportunities. These are mainly free and online, but I’ve included F2F conferences and workshops, so be sure to check the notes for fees. Please let me know in the comments if I’ve missed anything.

As they say in these parts ‘Bona tornada!

  1. The upcoming CPD opportunities for Autumn 2025 look incredibly valuable for students and professionals aiming to upgrade their skills. I especially appreciate the focus on practical learning and industry-driven sessions. For learners managing academic work alongside CPD programs, services like customer relationship management assignment help can be a real support. It allows them to stay on track with studies while focusing on building new competencies through these upcoming training opportunities. Great initiative!
