This last August we celebrated with our winners of the 2008 competition in beautiful Kona, Hawaii. It really was great to see my friends again from Colegio Boston from Costa Rica since this is the second time in a row that they've won the competition.
Here I am with Jorge Luis Garcia who is the team coach for Colegio Boston:
And here I am again with our winner of the IC3 World Cup Exam Competition, Carl Furst, from Bits and Grips in Germany:
That's a nice big check isn't it?
This year there have been some changes to the competition. Number one, Benchmark is no longer included as one of the activities to earn points in the competition. However, we strongly recommend that you still use it as it helps prepare students to pass the IC3 exams. Remember, you only earn points for the exams that your students pass.
Second, this year we will have regional winners and then 1 worldwide winner that will join us at Pathways 2009. There will be 3 regional winners--one from the Americas (North and South), EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa) and APAC (Asia). The regional winner with the most points at the end of the competition will be our worldwide champion that will win the free trip.
Pathways 2009 will be held in Toronto, Canada. For more information regarding Pathways, you can visit our site.
Hope to see you there!
