TESOL: EAP and ESP in Transition: Staying Relevant in Changing Times


Date: April 17, 2026
Time: 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM EDT
Description:
As EAP and ESP programs in U.S. universities face new challenges, administrators are increasingly asked to demonstrate their value while adapting curricula to accommodate staffing changes and new teaching formats.
In this informal chat, we will discuss how we are rethinking and reconceptualizing EAP and ESP programs to stay relevant and continue supporting international education, multilingual students, and researchers. The session will include a brief introduction to the topic, followed by small-group breakout discussions and large-group sharing.
Register: Registration is open to both TESOL members and non-members: https://my.tesol.org/networks/events/242341
