This scholarship was set up by the Teacher Training and Education SIG (TTEd SIG) in 1999. The driving force behind the conference fund was Gillian Porter Ladousse who was Coordinator of the SIG at the time. The fund, which was named the Gillian Porter Ladousse Scholarship after Gillian's untimely death in 2002, was set up to enable a teacher trainer who is a member of TTEd SIG to attend the IATEFL Conference.
The scholarship consists of:
- registration for the TTEd Pre-Conference Event
- registration for the IATEFL Conference
- GBP 1500.00 towards conference related expenses
