Summary/Abstract: Supporting CLIL teachers in developing skills for content and language integration is not an easy task as most of them were trained either as language or as content specialists. With CLIL teaching becoming more popular in Poland, there is a growing interest in providing more opportunities for continuous professional development. The aim of this paper is threefold, to explore the current research literature on CLIL teachers’ professional development, to present the results of survey research exploring the professional development needs of CLIL teachers in Poland and finally to formulate some recommendations for organizing professional development initiatives for CLIL teachers.
