Training of Trainers workshop on Self-study

The EMCI’s work program for the academic year 2016-17 included the organisation of a workshop for less experienced trainers of interpreters on the subject of self-study. The workshop was organised by ELTE University, Budapest, and it was co-moderated by Ms. Ildiko Horvath (ELTE), Ms. Beate Brehm (DG INTE), Ms. Manuela Motta (University University) and Mr. Paolo Torrigiani (DG SCIC). Representative from fifteen Universities attended the workshop.

Given the interactive nature of the workshops, it was impossible to video-record the event. The documents that guided the workshops are made available for future reference (courtesy of the moderators, whom we thank wholeheartedly).
