Kocijančič Pokorn, Nike (author), Mikolič Južnič, Tamara (author)

The aim of the chapter is to discuss the importance of continuous education of teachers and of the official certification of the professions of a community interpreter and of an intercultural mediator. The chapter provides a framework of reference for competences of community interpreter and intercultural mediator teachers that was created by the partners in the TRAMIG project. The framework of reference identifies five principal competences that each teacher of community interpreters or intercultural mediators should strive to acquire throughout their career: field competence, interpersonal competence, organisational competence, instructional competence, and assessment competence. A distinction is made between the competences of community interpreter teachers and those of intercultural mediator teachers, in particular in the area of field competence. The trainees are asked to identify their strengths and weaknesses regarding the provided list of competences. Keywords: teacher profile, trainer profile, educator profile, competence framework, framework of reference, community interpreter, intercultural mediator.
