Fourteen teachers from the Dovletmammet Azadi Turkmen National Institute of World Languages received international TKT (Teaching Knowledge Test) certificates from the Cambridge Testing Centre after completing a three-month online training course in modern English teaching methods. This was reported by the news website Turkmenportal.
