About this Unit
In 2013, this unit replaced by 101943 - Accreditation Studies (UG). This is a compulsory unit for students who choose the interpreting stream of the BA (Interpreting and Translation) course. It aims to provide students with practice and constructive feedback wholly focused on preparing for the interpreting accreditation examination. A pass in the unit in interpreting examination with 70 will make students eligible for NAATI accreditation on completion of the rest of the requirements of the course.
