The TOEFL Teacher Certification Program has launched (sort of). As I wrote a few days ago, this is a paid certification program newly offered by the TOEFL program. According to the website, it includes a self-paced course and a summative assessment. Participants are also required to take the TOEFL test before being awarded a certificate. Those who complete the program will have their names listed on the official TOEFL website.
Currently the program is only available in China (“global rollout coming soon”), though when I scanned the provided QR code with my WeChat app I didn’t get any information about how to get started.
It is unclear how much it costs to participate.
