Supervision
Learning should be supported.
Students should not navigate professional situations without appropriate guidance.
Planned for the future
Future internship opportunities.
SIA plans to offer supervised learning for interpreting students and new professionals. Internships are not open now.
What SIA plans to offer
Supported learning, not premature independence.
An internship should offer supervision, preparation, clear boundaries, feedback, and learning that fits the student’s stage of development.
SIA’s future program will focus on educational value and ethical readiness. Details will be developed with care before any placement is offered.
Readiness
Opportunities should fit the learner.
Each experience should reflect the student’s skills, ethical responsibilities, and stage of professional development.
Reflection
Experience needs feedback.
Preparation and a conversation afterward give students space to learn from the experience.
Future interest
Tell SIA you are interested.
This interest form is not an internship application. Internships are not open now.
Next step
Looking for support now?
Mentorship is separate from future internships. It may be a better choice if you are looking for support now.
