APEOICVA
The APEOICVA is the Association for Teachers of the Official School of Languages in the Valencian Community. The Official Schools of Languages are state schools which operate under the Board of Education of each Spanish Autonomous Community and are included in the same administrative area as secondary schools and primary schools. The teachers are civil servants, both those with permanent positions and those without, who operate under the Board of Education. There are currently 18 Official Schools of Languages in the Valencian Community. Due to the fact that they are state schools, any citizen over the age of 16 can enrol as a student. Some EEOOII, Official Schools of Languages, in Spain offer enrolment for up to 23 different languages, such as the EOI Jesús Maestro in Madrid, or the EOI Drassanes in Barcelona.
The APEOICVA, professional association and non-governmental organization, is part of the National Federation of Associations for EOI Teachers and in 2016 there were as many as 145 members from Language Schools all around our Autonomous Community, all of them with the same desire to teach students who feel the same desire to learn foreign languages to enable mobility around Europe and to increase their job opportunities. Added to the objective of improving day to day conditions for its members, together with the education administration, the APEOICVA organizes language teacher training courses and conferences, as cooperating entity of the Valencian Community’s Board of Education.
