H-INET is the umbrella association for all English for Purposes of International Communication (EPIC) teachers in Higher Education in Israel. We welcome teachers of additional languages to join as well.
The aims of H-INET are:
- To serve as a professional association to support and empower language teachers
- To act as a national organization that advocates for the best interests of our profession, including teachers and students, while challenging developments that may have negative implications for the field and working with national institutions, teachers and students to facilitate developments with positive implications
- To promote joint research projects and ongoing professional development, nationally and internationally
- To hold annual conferences, study days, and workshops
- To encourage members to publish their research in H-INET’s international Journal of English for Purposes of International Communication (JEPIC), and to support novice researchers in writing and publishing their work JEPIC, Vol 1: Issue 1, 2023
- To establish Special Interest Groups (SIGs) on professional matters of interest; e.g., English Medium Instruction (EMI) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) in language teaching and learning
