This year's English UK ELT Marketing Conference was a great success and we have already received some very positive feedback. With a lively and engaging list of speakers, the Conference had something for everyone - from a session on effective networking, to a panel discussion on the future trends in ELT marketing.

We are delighted to announce that our new Deputy Chief Executive for Professional Services, Huan Japes, will be joining us in February, leading English UK's work on quality assurance and professional development.

Taking place on the 2 and 3 March at St Anne's College, Oxford, the English UK ELT Management Conference is a prestigious and important event on the ELT calendar and is the UK's leading event for practising ELT managers.

The ELT Marketing Conference is an important forum for professionals who are involved in the sales and marketing of English language and other courses to international students. In addition to our keynote and plenery speakers, we are pleased to announce that Ms Bayan Sami Abdul Rahman, the Kurdistan Regional Government's High Representative to the UK, will now be joining us to lead a market information session on Kurdistan.
