For the first time I see themes like :

• Best practice for practical translation workshops
• Translator training and cognition
• Translators, interpreters and CPD
• Translator and interpreting training online (distance learning)
• Training the trainer
• Relevance of translation theory in and outside the classroom
• Educational theories
• Employability
• Clients need educating too!

These are indeed 21st century topivs and innovative trends to look for... Those highlighted in BLUE fall into the area  of my ongoing research as a Phd candidate.
