ADVICE TO STUDENTS

Conference interpreting training courses by country in order of compliance with the AIIC criteria.

Page 10 of 11
Download this paper: (pdf - 80 k)

This list only shows courses which meet some (*), most (**), all or almost all (***) of the training criteria set out in the brochure. The Training Committee decided not to include courses which did not meet the minimum criteria, or else courses for which it felt it had too little relevant information or where training was not intended solely in conference interpreting.

A distinction has been made between courses which train interpreters for a broad range of interpretation markets and those offering a more restricted range of languages. In the latter case, we have listed the languages. Courses for which there is no indication of the languages covered provide training for interpreters with a variety of mother tongues.

This list is updated regularly on the basis of information received by the Training Committee in the form, inter alia, of replies to a questionnaire, course prospectuses, as well as any information students, graduates, colleagues, teachers and employers of interpreters may communicate to us.
