The Foreign Language Program Office (FLPO) of the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI), and the National Cryptologic School (NCS), are pleased to announce the Language Education and Resources Network (LEARN) Strategies for Independent Learning workshop. Wednesday, June 5th and Thursday, June 6th at the Catholic University of America in Washington DC.

The LEARN workshops provide foreign language professionals from U.S. Government (USG)-affiliated schools and institutions a venue to interact with their colleagues where they can:

• Share their knowledge, experience, unique perspective, and educational best practices with peers;
• Discuss and explore issues related to the science and technology of foreign language education;
• Develop networks of teachers to create communities of practices,
• Reduce duplication of effort in areas such as curriculum design, course delivery and assessment.

This LEARN Workshop is open to foreign language professionals including instructors and course developers from any USG-affiliated institution. Preference will be given to proposals with applicability across a wide spectrum of languages.

Funding for any associated travel expenses will be the responsibility of the attendees' organization.
