Russian language proficiency certification workshop

[Michael Newcity]

Please share the following announcement with any interested colleagues:

 

The Duke Slavic and Eurasian Language Resource Center will sponsor a Russian
proficiency testing certification workshop during the last week in July
(July 24-31).  At this workshop, Russian language instructors will be
trained and certified as Russian language proficiency testers by a TRKI
[тестирование русского как иностранного] examiner.  TRKI is the Russian
Federation language proficiency testing system for five areas of linguistic
competence (aural comprehension, reading, writing, speaking, and
grammar/lexicon) developed and administered by the Russian Ministry of
Education and Science.  At previous workshops, faculty from Indiana
University, University of Arizona, University of North Carolina, the
University of Wisconsin, Duke, and other universities have completed the
certification process and became qualified to conduct TRKI proficiency
testing at all levels.

Participating Russian language instructors will be responsible for their
transportation and accommodations, but there are no registration or other
similar fees for participating in the workshop.

Interested Russian language instructions should contact Michael Newcity at
mnewcity at duke.edu for further information.

 

Regards,

Michael Newcity
