| Description: | Our 24-hour online comprehensive training course Attendees are healthcare interpreters, bilinguals, public school family liaisons, public school administrative teams , interpreters who want to interpret in educational settings. This 24-hour program aims to prepare bilingual interpreters and educational interpreters for the context of where they will be interpreting. Bilingual interpreters and educational interpreters will learn and have an understanding on a variety of topics, such as public and private schools, Interdepartmental School District Structures, they'll get an overview of the minimum qualifications to work as a public school interpreter, we'll cover language access laws and how they are related to educational interpreting, we'll discuss parent engagement and its opportunities and how it's connected to the interpreting world in the context of education; we'll dive into the types of meeting assignments and the settings that they could potentially encounter and how to best provide interpreting services; we'll review the different roles of educational interpreters; the codes of Ethics currently followed in the educational settings; I'll introduce techniques and strategies for managing the flow of communication during meetings; we'll review the modes of interpreting in educational settings; additionally, we'll go through what interpreting in education is mostly known for Special Education; its purposes and processes; We'll go over all the common acronyms and the important terminology for interpreting in the educational setting; for context, we'll discuss a list of IEP eligibility requirements and disabilities so that you can get familiar with these terms and process; and last but not least, we will cover professional development and resources for bilingual interpreters and educational interpreters as a trained qualified interpreter working in the educational settings. Throughout this course, you will encounter highlighted terminology that would be important for bilingual interpreters and educational interpreters to remember and get familiar with. We will run through practice activities to help bilingual interpreters and educational interpreters get more familiar with some of the content, and of course, we couldn't offer a robust training program without including module quizzes and a final exam to test your understanding. As you can already see, it takes much more than fluency in two languages to interpret in this setting. The goal of this program is to give bilingual interpreters and educational interpreters a deep dive into what they could expect walking into an interpreting assignment in an educational setting, but also to provide you with the tools they need to perform your role as the Interpreter with confidence, context, and professionalism. |

| Description: | An online training course for bilingual individuals interested in joining the growing field of professional medical interpreting. This comprehensive training is based on a curriculum that was established at Language Bank in 2009.

Through this training, participants will have the opportunity to work on medical vocabulary with a language-specific coach (as long as there is a coach available for a particular language).
Students will finish the course with the tools they need to begin successful careers as professional medical interpreters. Students who attend all class sessions and pass the final assessments will receive a certificate of proficiency.

| Description: | Medical Communication Ambassadors has been training medical interpreters for 20 years, and over the past two years, we have adapted our tried-and-true curriculum for Mandarin/English interpreting. What makes our 80-hour, fully online course unique is its depth and its Chinese language specificity. While most medical interpretation certification courses include 40 hours of language-agnostic (meaning, taught in English) instruction and a few language-specific meetings with a coach, our course spends double the time on instruction and practice in small, intimate classes, all of which is taught bilingually in both English and Mandarin. Our course covers interpretation techniques, areas of medicine like cardiology and psychology, and topics such as intercultural communication and self care, more than preparing students for the national exam. We believe this extensive practice and curriculum is not only essential to the training of competent, confident medical interpreters, it also gives students an edge in seeking employment. Our all-inclusive tuition fee comes with a one-week money-back guarantee. Please visit www.medicalmandarin.com, call (612) 735-6066, or email mca.med.mandarin@gmail.com |

| Description: | The Medical Interpreting Training Program (60 hours) is a program that aims to provide both the medical knowledge and hands-on practical training for those who would like to joint hands with the healthcare providers, where the demands for professional interpreting services are on the rise. The program provides Professional Development Sessions where professional healthcare providers are invited to partake in the real-life training sessions with the students. This is where the students get to do mock-interpreting in real-time. This is also a rare opportunity for the students to inquire how to best work with healthcare professionals in different settings, as well as what to expect on site.
Other than including the fundamental knowledge and hard skills of medical/healthcare interpreting, this program also includes a break down of elements that may be overlooked during a real-life session. These elements include facial and body language cues, seating arrangements, voice and tone, sense of delivery, so on and so forth.
Aside from medical terminologies, knowledge and trends, as well as the interpreter’s tools (hard skills) and much more, this program also pays special attention on practicum sessions and drillings, as we do believe in “To learn and not to do is really not to learn. To know and not to do is really not to know.”― Stephen R. Covey.
Altogether, by the end of this program, the students should be able to demonstrate professionalism and competence in the following areas:
• A complete understanding of the Code of Ethics, and Interpreting Standards (including Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act- HIPPA)
• Protocols for medical interpreting
• The understanding of medical terminologies/concepts/knowledge
• The understanding of medical examinations, diagnostic procedures, and treatments
• Situational interpreting
• The understanding of the triad environment (independent and codependent)
• Competence in consecutive interpreting
• Competence in sight translation
• Competence in note-taking techniques
• Competence in shadowing
• Competence in interpreting assignment preparation
• The ability to identify the roles of a medical interpreter
• The ability to apply the learnt concepts in real-life situations
• The ability to self-evaluate, including limitations and competencies
• Know the importance of memory in interpreting
• Know the importance of continued competence
• The understanding of how to prepare for the accreditation exams (both in the United States and in Canada)

| Description: | The Professional Medical Interpreter is an online comprehensive 40-hour medical interpreter training course developed by Liberty Language Services. With over a decade of experience as an interpretation agency, training and interacting with interpreters daily, we know what it takes to prepare bilinguals to meet the demands of professional interpreting in the 21st century. We created the Professional Medical Interpreter based on today’s accreditation standards for medical interpreter education and covered the topics necessary for national certification. In this course, students will learn the standards of practice and code of ethics from both the International Medical Interpreters Association (IMIA) and the National Council on Interpreting in Health Care (NCIHC).
The Professional Medical Interpreter offers a self-paced, online learning experience complete with video lessons, exercises, interpreting practices, medical terminology glossary and flashcards, and your choice of physical or digital textbooks. The two textbooks that supplement the online course material are The Professional Medical Interpreter: A Comprehensive 40-Hour Medical Interpreting Course and Medical Terminology for Interpreters.
The course fee includes 6 months access to the course, oral language proficiency testing in English and your target language, and online support from our in-house instructor throughout your entire learning journey.
