Why Sponsor?

ATESL's annual conference brings together hundreds of ESL educators, administrators, and academics from both adult settings and K-12. We anticipate the conference will draw over 400 delegates from every region of Alberta and from across Canada.

Our lineup of keynotes for this year will attract language professionals from beyond our provincial and national borders as well!

The ESL professionals attending this conference strive to welcome newcomers and help provide them with essential life and language skills needed to successfully adapt to life in Canada.

You can help recognize the dedication of the learners, teachers, and leaders in the ESL field by supporting the ATESL 2024 Conference as a sponsor.

Your organization has the potential to impact thousands as conference participants return to their institutions to share their material and memorable experiences gained at the conference.
