Where can I get training for working with endangered languages?
There is a growing number of organisations providing professional training for language maintenance practitioners. In Australia, Pundulmurra College in Western Australia and Batchelor College in the Northern Territory (http:www.batchelor.edu.au/) train indigenous linguists, language workers and teachers. Monash University (http://www.arts.monash.edu.au/ling) has a course which offers professional development for a wide range of practitioners who are working with endangered languages. Internationally, there are a number of universities which particularly support work with endangered languages, including the Hans Rausing Endangered Languages Project (UK) (http://www.hrelp.org/home.htm), U. Texas (USA), and UC Berkeley (USA).
