Posted by NITA Administrator on April 30, 2009

The Joint National Committee for Languages (JNCL) and the National Council for Languages and International Studies (NCLIS) celebrate the Annual Legislative Day and Delegate Assembly in Washington, DC on May 7-9.

Representatives from the member organizations of JNCL-NCLIS meet each May in Washington, DC for a three-day conference. The first day of the annual meeting is called “Legislative Day” when attendees meet on Capitol Hill, learn about important pending legislation related to foreign language education and international studies and then visit the offices of senators and representatives to advocate on behalf of those bills. The remaining two days of the conference are entitled “Delegate Assembly” and time is devoted to further discussion of national policies, trends, and issues related to the profession.
