Western Province.
The teachers will be trained in up-to-date learner-centred, activity
based methodology.
Each module will be assessed independently and upon the completion of
all 20 modules the participants will be awarded a British Council
Certificate in Secondary English Language Teaching at the end of the
course.
The official agreement was signed between NDB Bank CEO Russell de Mel
and British Council Country Director Tony Reilly.
