“…Perceived organizational support pertains to students' perceptions of the institution's care, recognition, and assistance (Jones et al, 2021). When students believe they are well supported, they feel valued and secure, which enhances their well-being and satisfaction (Giustini, 2020). In this context, the moderating effect suggests that the impact of inclusive leadership on student satisfaction depends on the perceived level of organizational support (Dhahri et al, 2020).…”

The appeal of online education within the academic community has grown significantly due to advancements in technology and increased investments made during the pandemic. Despite the rapid expansion of research in online education, most studies have concentrated on technology and teaching techniques, overlooking social factors that also play a crucial role in students’ contentment with online learning. This study uses quantitative methods to investigate the impact of selected social variables on students’ satisfaction with online education. The research employed a designed questionnaire to gather data from African students engaged in online studies abroad. The collected data was then analyzed using SPSS-AMOS version 23. The study utilized a hierarchical linear regression model to assess the influence of different variables on students’ satisfaction with online education. The findings revealed that psychological safety and inclusive leadership positively influenced students’ satisfaction with online education. Conversely, perceived organizational support and learner–learner interaction adversely affected students’ satisfaction in the online learning environment. Moreover, the research highlighted that psychological safety, inclusive leadership, and perceived organizational support positively influenced learner–learner interaction. Additionally, perceived organizational support was identified as a moderator, affecting the relationships between other variables and students’ satisfaction with online education. Because of these findings, educational institutions and researchers are recommended to recognize social constructs’ critical role in students’ satisfaction with online education. It is essential to broaden the focus beyond technological aspects and teaching methods, as social variables are equally vital for students to have a fulfilling academic experience in online education.

“…Hence, though small in scale, the present study aims to provide a snapshot of current translator and interpreter training opportunities in the country, examining the availability and structure of the training programmes presently available. Indeed, several similar studies exploring general and specific aspects of translator and/or interpreter training in a given market have been conducted in a range of countries, including China (Xu, 2005;Zhan, 2014), Japan (Giustini, 2020), Latvia (Silis, 2009), Montenegro (Lakić & Pralas, 2016), Spain (Baxter, 2014), Tunisia (Salhi, 2011), and the United States (Mikkelson, 2014), as well as the author's recent overview of the interpreter training context in the Republic of Ireland (Hoyte-West, 2020). To this end, it is intended that the current study will not just provide a foundation for future empirical work regarding relevant education and training models for the translational professions in Trinidad & Tobago, but could also lead to the possibility of comparative work with other small states in the Caribbean and beyond.…”

This article provides an overview of the current provision of translator and interpreter training in the English-speaking Caribbean nation of Trinidad and Tobago. In contextualising the country's current linguistic and geopolitical situation, including the growing prominence of Spanish in the country's society, present conditions regarding the need for translational services are outlined. The overview adopts a literature-based approach which involves analysing the websites of tertiary institutions in Trinidad and Tobago where translation and interpreting-related training provision is currently on offer. Through examination of the relevant course syllabi and the pertinent degree and diploma programmes available, available course offerings are presented and discussed, thus giving a solid panorama of the present landscape regarding translator and interpreter training options in the country. Finally, although interpreter training seems well-established in the country, suggestions are offered regarding possible future steps for translator training in the Trinidad and Tobago context, as well as pointers for subsequent empirical research in the future.
