AA~BA Partnerships: Creating New Value for Interpreter Education Programs

This publication follows the NCIEC 2008 publication Towards Effective Practices: A National Dialog on AA~BA Partnerships. In the 2008 publication, interpreter educators identified five partnership models they believed held the most promise for application to our field. AA~BA Partnerships: Creating New Value for Interpreter Education Programs 2010 provides the reader with a greater understanding of the critical components necessary for successful partnership. This information along with interpreter education program survey findings, descriptions of the five partnership models, interviews with programs both inside and outside of the field of interpreter education and case studies that showcase “lessons learned” from both successful and unsuccessful ventures in two-year/four-year partnerships is presented in this volume.
