Our upcoming training seminar, Medical Interpreting as a Profession, was broadcast by the Californian, a newspaper based in Salinas, California, where the county government is located and the majority of residents are Spanish-speakers from Mexico.

This area has a strong need for medical interpretation services, so this workshop allows us to provide a much needed and valuable program for the community. Our goal is to help bilingual speakers and interpreters enter the medical interpretation field. Download the workshop info and registration form here.
