The 6th CIE International Teachers' Conference took place on 27 - 29 September 2010. Many thanks to everyone who attended for helping it be such an outstanding success.

The CIE International Teachers' Conference is THE professional development and networking conference for Cambridge teachers, and this year over 180 delegates from over 40 countries met to share ideas and resources, explore issues relating to the global learner and global education, and to network with colleagues from around the world.

Keynote speakers from the University of Cambridge and from Global Education organisations put global learning into context and provided a vocabulary for delegates to use in the discussions in their workshops. Delegates attended a number of facilitated workshops and explored the nature of the 'global learner', and developed practical classroom techniques that help equip the Global Learner with the skills and knowledge they will need in our changing world.

Delegates were extremely positive about their experiences at the conference, and many spoke of the wealth of ideas they had gained to take back to their schools and share with colleagues. As one delegate noted:

"I enjoyed sharing ideas and thoughts with teachers from so many backgrounds. I do feel now that I am part of a teaching community struggling towards the same goals no matter where we are located."
