Community Interpreting Training & Why Our Program Is So Effective

Community interpreting is a type of interpreting service that is often provided by local governments or organizations to large numbers of ethnic minorities. Allowing all who don't speak the official or dominant language access to communicate with and understand service providers. Community interpreting training prepares students to become competent interpreters, who can work in multiple different fields including: business, government affairs, legal issues, education, industry, social services and public relations. Certified community interpreters impact their communities greatly by increasing language accessibility or the idea that anyone should be able to easily access, benefit from and understand what is being said at any public event or by private hire.

Medical Interpreting Training & 3 Ways Our Program is Different

Medical interpreting training has become more in demand than ever. For those who are bilingual- with a fluency in English and another language- becoming a medical interpreter can be a lucrative career opportunity with the proper training. While there are many different fields to choose from in the interpreting world: legal, immigration, community and medical- it is important to know: where you want to focus your training, how much time and money you can devote to your pursuit, and at what level you want to be certified. Our online medical interpreter training program is a comprehensive, 60-hour training course, that exceeds official medical interpreter exam requirements. These days, there are hundreds if not thousands of different preparation courses, and depending on which institution you take your exam with, those requirements can change ...so what sets our program apart from the rest?

Interpreting Love Languages Into Meaningful Valentine’s Date Ideas

Interpreting your partner's love language can be difficult. Whether it is acts of service, words of affirmation, gift giving, quality time or physical touch- everyone has a different way of showing their love. One of our intrinsic, most basic needs as human beings is feeling loved by the people close to us, and the sense of belonging that brings. To have a successful, flourishing and meaningful relationship you must understand your own love language, and what makes you feel loved, as it is to understand and speak your partners'. Caring about the people in our lives is a very personal thing. You know you care; but you have to show your feelings, preferably every day. It's so easy to get so wrapped up in our own lives, that we end up waiting until Valentine's day or an anniversary to say how we feel. While online interpreting school can give you the skills to start a meaningful interpreting career, we can't teach you how to speak your partners' love language. We can teach you the skills needed to start a career in medical interpreting, but when it comes to speaking another love language....well, we don't have a course for that. As for right now, we can offer you Meaningful Date Ideas For Each Love Language:

Court Interpreting, Language Justice and Covid-19

Court Interpreting, like every occupation and industry, has had to evolve with the challenges presented by Covid-19. When public health mandates required a reduction of foot-traffic in public spaces, court interpreting moved largely online via technology allowing for remote interpreting services like VRI (Video Remote Interpreting) and OPI (Over the Phone Interpreting). Courts started using AI through virtual assistants, and multiple courts started using tech for jury operations. Court interpreters have heavily relied on courts enhancing tech infrastructure to meet the demands of a modern, and socially distanced society. Which begs the question: how has language justice been affected by Covid-19, and what role does technology play in court interpreting?
