As most of you probably know by now, November is Continuing Professional Development (CPD) month for the EnglishAgenda and TeachingEnglish websites, as we celebrate the launch of the latest British Council publication, 'Innovations in the continuing professional development of English language teachers'. Throughout the month we have been featuring blogs, podcasts, book extracts and webinars all on the subject of CPD, leading up to the livestreamed publication launch event on Friday 28th November.
