PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT
AMBASSADORSHIP
How it works: Fill out the application for a $100 stipend to support you in attending a professional development workshop, conference, course, or convention. The event does not have to be specific to languages, but the content should be something which you and other language teachers can apply to your teaching. The event might be a state, regional, national, or international event. The expectation is that you will present what you learned to your fellow language teachers at the next NILA Conference.
If your application is selected, after attending the event, you'll submit a session proposal for the next NILA Conference. You will register for the NILA conference, and NILA will waive your registration fee. After you have presented, NILA will send you a check for $100 to partially reimburse you for your expenses.
Below are some possible organizations whose events you might consider attending. This is by no means an exhaustive list. This list is provided as a springboard to get you thinking; it is not intended to be an endorsement of any organization or event. As long as the event provides materials that would be beneficial to language educators in the state of Nebraska, your application will be considered.
