This comprehensive Coursebook sets out an updated step-by-step programme of training in the integrated skills, language proficiency, knowledge management and professionalism that conference interpreters will need to meet the increasingly challenging conditions of the 21st century profession. After an overview of the diverse modes and settings in which interpreting is practiced, successive chapters take students and teachers through the prerequisites for training, initiation, and the acquisition of the techniques, technical skills and domain knowledge modes that make up the conference interpreter's skillset, with exercises and guidance on the cognitive challenges of each stage, in a spirit of transparency between students and teachers on their respective roles in the training process. For instructors, course designers and administrators, more detailed and extensive tips on pedagogy, curriculum design and management will be found in the companion Trainer's Guide.
