Abstract

In a pioneering national survey of court interpreting in Australia, 84% of the surveyed interpreters responded that they did not receive any preparation materials prior to their court interpreting assignments.1 As part of a larger PhD project investigating the role of preparation using case-related materials2 in court interpreting,3 I conducted a national survey of Australian court interpreters’ preparation practices in 2016. This article highlights the survey results and presents a synthesis of findings from the quantitative and qualitative data collected in the survey.4
