ASOCOPI AWARDS

In 1990, the Board of Directors of ASOCOPI decided to create a special award for individuals and/or institutions who had devoted their lives to strengthening and enriching the Association.    The name chosen was CLARE DE SILVA in honor of one of our Founding members and the first President of   ASOCOPI. 

ASOCOPI, represented by its Board of Directors, wants to recognize individuals who had devoted his/her life to strengthening and enriching the Association; or an institution which has demonstrated commitment and support to the Association`s objectives.     The award will be granted during the National Congress in October to the nominee with the highest positive impact to the Association. 

The nomination deadline is August 30th, 2024

ASOCOPI recognizes outstanding contributions from novice researchers in the field of English Language Teaching in Colombia by awarding the Best Graduate and Undergraduate Thesis Awards. These awards honor the author(s) of an exceptional thesis at the graduate or undergraduate level whose research has significantly contributed to the academic community in ELT. 

 Any current ASOCOPI member who has supervised a thesis with a final evaluation between 4.5 and 5.0 (not necessarily laureate) at the undergraduate level may nominate its author(s) for this award. 

These awards are granted when sponsorship is available.
