Reflections on IATEFL 2025 in Edinburgh Jacques Henet, Pedagogical Expert – Language Department, Le Forem
Last year, Jacques Henet won one of the Joris De Roy Memorial Grants at BELTA Day 2024. In spring, he attended the IATEFL Conference in Edinburgh, which took place from April 8 to April 11, 2025. In this blog post he shares some of his reflections.
The 2025 IATEFL International Conference and Exhibition took place in the impressive capital city of Scotland, Edinburgh. This year, on Monday, April 7, I represented BELTA at the Associates’ Day, which preceded the main IATEFL conference held from Tuesday, April 8 to Friday, April 11, 2025, at the Edinburgh International Conference Centre. Over the course of the four-day conference, more than 500 academic sessions, an exhibition of materials for English language teaching, and a social evening programme were offered to the international community of English language teaching professionals.
On BELTA Day not only speakers and delegates meet in Brussels. We are lucky to be joined every year by many ELT publishers and other organisations that offer services in ELT. They have their stands in the Exhibition Hall, where you can visit them to see the latest materials and ask your questions. Let's put a few of them in the spotlight. Oxford University Press would like to highlight the Oxford Test of English.
