Descripción: Abstract In recent years, much attention has been given to the need for more empirical research to evaluate training programs that help prepare graduate students for their current and future teaching responsibilities. The present study investigated the effectiveness of a training workshop for graduate students who had varying levels of experience and diverse cultural backgrounds. Results indicated that over the course of training participants significantly increased their self-efficacy, knowledge, and effective teaching behaviours and decreased their public speaking apprehension. Although participants with varying levels of experience as well as participants with Canadian and inter- national backgrounds benefited from the program, the results highlighted the need for additional teaching development opportunities for international graduate students. Résumé Ces dernières années, on a beaucoup insisté sur la nécessité de pousser la recherche empirique en vue d’évaluer les programmes de formation qui préparent les futurs enseignants à assumer les charges d’enseignement actuelles et à venir. Cette étude a investigué l’efficacité d’un atelier de formation à l’intention de finissants ayant une expérience préalable variée et provenant d’horizons culturels divers. Les résultats indiquent que l’atelier a eu un effet significatif favorable sur le niveau d’auto-efficacité et de connaissances des participants ainsi que sur leur efficacité pédagogique et qu’il a diminué leur crainte de parler en public. Bien que l’atelier se soit révélé profitable pour les participants, peu importe leur expérience préalable ou leur origine, les résultats indiquent qu’il faut créer de nouvelles occasions de formation pour les finissants d’origine étrangère.
