Global Literacies:  Integrated Approaches to Cross-Cultural Training
Sharing ideas, Engaging Communities, Integrating Practices

The theme of the 12th Annual CIBER Business Language Conference  
explores the practice and theory of language and cultural training  
through the lens of literacy. The notion of literacies emphasizes the  
multiple competencies required of future business leaders to situate  
appropriate understandings and meaning in proper contexts (discursive  
practices in specific cultures/contexts depending on who is speaking,  
what they are speaking about and the channel of communication).   The  
upcoming conference continues the tradition of bringing together  
teachers, scholars, policy makers, and business leaders to discuss  
business language education and to share ideas about the ways language  
education for future business leaders can benefit from principled  
frameworks and understandings of literacy, cross-cultural awareness  
and second language acquisition.

Presentation strands:

Literacy and Business Language Instruction: Implications for Classroom  
Practices
Literacy for Professional Contexts: Approaches to Cross-Cultural  
Training
