Students will explore the rationale and methods of the service delivery models specifically targeting educational interpreting, address the ethics of educational interpreting, and learn about the certification process for educational interpreters in the state of California .

**This second theory course does target grades 9 - post graduate environments, but covers general service provision philosophy and rationale that would be applicable to all levels. Those who work in other educational settings would clearly benefit from this course as well.
