Strategic competence is a core component of interpreting competence. The strategic competence scale in the Interpreting Scale of the China＇s Standards of English aims to provide a framework of reference for teaching, learn- ing and assessing interpreting. This paper first defines the framework of the strategic competence scale from the per- spective of the recta-cognitive theory. Focusing on consecutive interpreting, the paper then describes the methods and procedures of collecting the descriptors and quantifying the parameters of meta-cognitive strategic competence in inter- preting. Drawing on the results of factor analysis, the paper further constructs the descriptor framework and descrip- tors of strategic competence. It also points out some issues to be addressed in the future development of the strategic competence scale in the Interpreting Scale.
