We warmly invite you to submit a proposal for the 48th Language Testing Research Colloquium (LTRC 2027), taking place in Ghent, Belgium, June 26–30, 2027.
🌐 Theme: Language Assessment in Interdisciplinary Research
LTRC 2027 invites us to consider how language assessment intersects with, contributes to, and benefits from interdisciplinary research. We welcome work connecting language assessment with areas such as SLA, artificial intelligence, computational and corpus linguistics, psychometrics, educational measurement, multilingualism, public policy, migration, ethics, equity, fairness, and social justice.
We welcome submissions for paper presentations, demos, posters, works-in-progress (WIPs), and symposia.

• Symposium proposals: October 7, 2026, 11:59 p.m. (Anywhere on Earth)
• All other formats: October 23, 2026, 11:59 p.m. (Anywhere on Earth)
🎓 Students are warmly encouraged to submit. Eligible student presenters may be considered for the Robert Lado Memorial Award and ILTA travel grant funding.
