Representatives of Astrakhan State University Are Participating in Global Dialogue

The 3rd forum of conference interpreters “Global Dialogue” is taking place on January 20-24 at the Peoples’ Friendship University of Russia. ASU is represented by Head of the Caspian Higher School of Interpreting and Translation Uliana Savelieva, Dean of the Faculty of Foreign Languages Nadezhda Emelianova and Professor of the Department of English Philology Olga Egorova.

The forum “Global Dialogue” provides training for interpretation trainers and students. For example, the first day of the forum was dedicated to very important aspects of introduction to the profession. Master classes by Vadim Kurilov, the owner of EITCOM communication agency, an expert in marketing communications and the author and coach of the workshops “Voice as a basis of efficient business communication”, were especially memorable for the participants. The speaker also gave an interesting master class on an efficient model for preparing a public speech and, using voice coach materials, told the audience about the importance of applying an efficient model of public speaking.

The programme of the following days of the forum includes a series of practical master classes for interpreter advanced training, the main business programme, “Asian dialogue” — a special programme on Asian languages, and “Inclusive dialogue” — a programme on special types of interpretation.
