Since 2006, the UCG has, through its parent body the WGT, proposed to IAMLADP several practical initiatives, subsequently endorsed during the Annual Meeting. The CPD data base on this site contains many examples of such initiatives, i.e. offers from universities of training seminars for professional linguists.
Mandate for 2010-2011
- Maintain and supplement the CPD database to be posted on the IAMLADP website and periodically disseminated by WGT to focal points;
- Continue, replicate and report on specific joint IO/university training activities, based on the existing UCG models or any other effective model;
- Continue to support activities to raise awareness of the language professions, in the different member countries and across the language spread, having regard to identified shortages and succession planning issues;
-Anaylse the responses to the survey of universities offering training in Arabic, with a view to identifying existing courses and/or opportunities for the development of future courses for the training of Arabic interpreters/translators; and
- Continue providing support and inputs to the African training project in response to needs and opportunities identified by the project authorities.
