    It's Pilgrims 30th Birthday in 2004 and to celebrate 30 years at the forefront of humanistic language teaching we're holding a unique event:

    This is your chance to bring some of these pages to life and to see, hear and feel many of the ideas and techniques covered in HLT, as well as many new ideas.

    This is THE Humanistic event of 2004. You'll enjoy:

    • Five one hour plenary sessions by top ELT speakers
    • Three six hour workshop cycles
    • Three open seminars for all-important networking and debating
    • Lots of fun and interesting evening events

    We're busy inviting top trainers and speakers for this conference (many of them contributors to these very pages) and will keep you informed as to who will be appearing over the next months.
