How Does Online Interpreting Training Build Communities?
Online interpreting training is for the bilingual adults who already provide casual language interpreting. It's for the people who already help family members talk to doctors, or who translate papers for neighbors. Because you already understand the true value of becoming a language interpreter. Especially if you have ever stepped in during a tense situation because someone couldn't speak English... then you already understand the impact of language access. The difference between speaking two languages and working as a professional language interpreter is knowing how to carry yourself with skill, accuracy and confidence in any scenario. We teach bilingual adults how to become a medical interpreter. And how to become a court interpreter through meaningful online language interpreting training.
Two popular online interpreting training courses turn bilingual adults into professional language interpreters in a few short weeks!
1. Online medical interpreter training
It isn't until many people are actually sitting in a doctor's office or an emergency room when they realize "maybe I do need interpreter training for this after all."
Our medical interpreter training prepares students to face the reality of these scenarios that are already stressful enough. Through our live-streamed classrooms, medial interpreting students receive high-quality instruction, guidance and feedback in real time. Because the reality is that one simple mistake could have catastrophic consequences for the person with a Limited English Proficiency (LEP). But most importantly, our curriculum builds the foundation required of medical language interpreters such as:
• Medical terminology in both English and your target language of choice
• Understanding medical Interpreter Code of Ethics & common dilemmas
• How to remain HIPAA compliant and maintain patient confidentiality
• Fundamental industry standards and language interpreter skills
• How to navigate emotional and maintain composure during difficult conversations
• Real world practice with real-world medical interpreting scenarios
2. Online legal interpreter training
Legal interpreting has just as serious consequences for mistakes. The environments that legal interpreters must be prepared and comfortable with range from attorney-client meetings, to depositions, to court hearings and immigration interviews. The very nature of language interpreting for court requires precision and accountability. Our online legal interpreter training course curriculum involves:
• Language interpreter terminology for courtrooms
• Courtroom protocol and procedures
• Ethics of legal interpreting & navigating common dilemmas
• How to interpret accurately while registering intent
• Real-world practice with real-world legal interpreting scenarios
• Different legal interpreting techniques and how to apply them:
° Consecutive legal interpreting techniques: Commonly used in depositions and client meetings, this interpreting style requires translation after each person finishes speaking.
° Simultaneous legal interpreting techniques: Often used during trials, conferences or hearings, this interpreting style requires language translations in real-time as the speaker is talking.
Is online interpreting training the path for you?
We teach language skills - NOT entire languages
Maybe you want to become a medical interpreter so that you can help your community in a more meaningful way. Or, maybe you want to enroll in our legal interpreting training course, so that you can make real social impact.
As long as you care, and you want to build something truly impactful then becoming a language professional could be a good fit for you. Because your language proficiency is just the beginning. Our unique online interpreting training brings a live classroom wherever you happen to be (as long as there's internet connection). Language interpreting careers could be a great fit if you:
• Are comfortable switching languages
• Want a career change that provides socially significant & impactful work
• Care deeply about your community
