Teacher Training Program (Dublin in Ireland)

This is a refresher course for foreign language teachers that also provides an opportunity for teachers to enrich their knowledge of the language by having direct contact with the culture of the country, and interaction with fellow teachers from other countries.

Created in 1976, The CES is one of the most renowned schools of language in Europe. This is a school with thirty years of experience during which they have acquired an international reputation.
Today, CES / Swandean welcomes students from more than 55 different countries and cultures.
Dublin is one of Europe's most beautiful capital cities. It is exciting and vibrant and has one of the youngest populations in Europe. Culture and music are everywhere and areas such as Temple Bar attract many young people. The city has some of the finest examples of Georgian architecture in the world, and yet is a modern city with excellent shops, restaurants and museums all within short walking distance.
At night Dublin is just as lively as during the day. You can go to one of the many restaurants or visit the pubs famous for their traditional music and step-dancing.
