Welcome to Ashkelon, the ancient-modern city on Israel’s Mediterranean coast, and welcome to the 7th ETAI International Conference! Our venue this year is the Ashkelon Conference Center on the campus of the Ashkelon Academic College, a state-of-the-art facility offering spacious, comfortable rooms, extensive outdoor areas and a wide selection of cafes and restaurants. 

 

We are proud of our plenary and keynote speakers, who represent the best of our profession. They will Engage with the newest ideas and technologies; Enhance our knowledge; and Energize us to reach greater heights in our classrooms.  

 

In addition, we have a tremendous variety of sessions for you to choose from. These include signature events, talks, workshops, special interest groups and a research symposium. There will be opportunities to meet our invited guests and to network with colleagues from around Israel and the world. And don’t forget, a feature of all ETAI conferences is the extensive book and materials exhibition, this time bigger and better than ever and located in the ideal setting at the heart of the main conference building.

 

Relax and enjoy yourself at the end of each day at one of the special evening events –
choose from a quiz evening, Pecha Kucha, a city tour and “drinks and nibbles” provided by
our sponsors. 

 

We are grateful to our sponsors and to the Ashkelon Municipality, as well as to the Conference Center for making this the best International Conference in ETAI’s history, and we know you will have a wonderful conference experience.
