“ The Community Interpreter training was extremely useful. Aside from being rich in content, dynamic, and interesting, it had an immediate impact on my working conditions and I recommend it without reservation to anyone in the field or anyone considering joining our ranks. I came to the table as a competent interpreter, with the linguistic skills to perform my job well, so much so that I was already legally certified and had years of experience under my belt. Others in my place might doubt that a training like this would be of much use to them, but it was empowering, enlightening and altogether humbling to find out how much I did not know. Now I feel more fully like a professional, with clarity in my role and professional ethics, the stuff that sets a bilingual speaker just “winging it” apart from an interpreter.”
