| Description: | Postpartum Depression is a complex mental health condition that is particularly putting at risk immigrant mothers who do not speak the language of the new country. Insight into cultural beliefs about mental ill health is of utmost importance in these situations, as cultural expectations around motherhood and family roles may impact how postpartum depression is perceived and addressed within a community. Interpreters, being part of that community, should be sensitive to the emotional state of the person they are interpreting for, and be prepared to convey potentially difficult or sensitive information while maintaining professionalism. Please note that the content provided in this workshop is for informational purposes only and does not replace professional advice or counseling. |

It also covers the major factors a freelance linguist needs to consider when deciding when to use AI. Finally, it speaks about best practices for creating effective prompts and gives multiple examples of how to craft prompts that can potentially be used by linguists in their work. The workshop ends with a review of where people can stay informed about AI in T & I and with a Q & A period to allow for (as much as possible) people to ask questions that have not been answered. |

| Description: | Like most other professions, it is often what you are NOT taught in a classroom that makes you a successful interpreter. But what are the things that seasoned, successful interpreters wish they’d known when first starting their careers? What are the practical skills a mentor would teach you?
In this approachable webinar, you will be introduced to Cynthia Mauleón and what she sees as the practical side of interpreting: how to create a support system, how to build your reference collection, what to wear (or not wear) to an interpreting assignment, how to take care of yourself on the job.
After this webinar, participants will be able to:
1) Identify several non-linguistic tools for the interpreter “tool box”
2) Describe a basic set of interpreter reference tools, including several websites
3) Understand how to create an interpreter resource network
4) Identify several elements of an interpreter self-care plan |

| Description: | For our 9th annual Wellness Connection event, we want to make language professionals the center of the conversation and provide answers to the questions you may have on vicarious trauma.
Vicarious trauma can affect the performance and wellbeing of language professionals who experience or internalize someone else’s trauma as they facilitate communication for sensitive and/or traumatic experiences. Language professionals are rarely trained to handle the emotions that can arise from their work, leading to anxiety, high levels of stress, depression, or other mental health issues.
Don’t let vicarious trauma change your perceptions of the world. Our panel of experts and fellow language professionals will answer your questions and provide insight to help prevent and mitigate the effects of vicarious trauma.

| Description: | In the language industry, it’s all about words. Dealing with words may not seem like a high-risk profession, and for the majority of language professionals, it may not be. However, some face tough challenges that can affect them to their core, leading to high stress, burnout, vicarious trauma, compassion fatigue, or a drop in performance. Imagine interpreting for or translating content related to survivors of human trafficking, children’s protective services, or gruesome legal proceedings. It’s hard to be left unaffected by such work. Yet, vicarious trauma is a taboo topic that few providers are willing to tackle head on, whether it affects their interpreters, translators, or project managers.
Please join this session to listen to our impressive panel to openly talk about vicarious trauma in the language industry and what you can do to help teams better cope with high-stress situations.

In this presentation, we'll talk about what's expected from interpreters, the various credentials you can have, and how you can stand out in this competitive market. We'll help you plan your path to finding work using your portfolio and social media presence. |

In this session, we will review interpreter codes of ethics and standards of practice, as well as guidelines for ethical decision making. We will analyze different possible outcomes of real-life ethical dilemmas that interpreters have faced and engage in script development exercises to help navigate and resolve these situations when they arise with patients and providers. |

| Description: | An Adverse Event (AE) is a “involuntary” event that may have a harmful and negative outcome when a patient receives medical care. It must not be confused with medical malpractice or healthcare provider negligence. AEs occur frequently in healthcare settings and usually involve medical procedures, surgeries, or medications. For example, adverse events that occur with medical treatment can include medication side effects, injury, psychological harm or trauma, or even death. |

| Description: | In these sessions participants will explore how interpreters shape the dynamics of interpreted meetings through their emotional presence and meeting management skills. They will discuss how interpreters’ emotional “signatures”—their affective presence—can either ease or intensify the stress of meetings in education, healthcare and other settings. Positive affective presence enables families and patients feel more comfortable and engaged, creating a welcoming environment that fosters open communication. In contrast, a negative presence can increase tension, creating barriers that impede dialogue. Through examples, the presentation highlights how interpreters’ demeanor, whether warm and approachable or distant, directly impacts both parents’ and staff members’ comfort and willingness to participate. The session transitions into specific meeting management techniques interpreters can use to maintain an effective, balanced flow of communication. This includes pre-meeting briefings, appropriate interjections for clarification, and the professional use of gestures and positioning. These techniques support interpreters in managing pace, addressing misunderstandings, and creating a non-intimidating atmosphere. |

| Description: | Generative AI can be a great tool for interpreters, and making the most of it starts with understanding its capabilities. In this session, we will explore actual use cases and strategies to turn AI into a powerful assistant that can be used while preparing for an assignment, interpreting, and reflecting on our performance.
The rapid advancement of AI technology has opened new possibilities for language professionals. For interpreters, AI tools can streamline terminology research, provide real-time support, and even assist with post-assignment debriefing. However, leveraging AI effectively requires a nuanced understanding of its strengths and limitations. This session will provide interpreters with practical insights into how AI-powered tools, such as large language models and speech-to-text applications, can be integrated into their workflow.
Through real-world examples, participants will gain a deeper understanding of AI’s role in interpretation. Attendees will leave with actionable strategies to enhance their professional practice by incorporating AI into their interpreting routine. From creating comprehensive glossaries and analyzing documents during preparation, to utilizing AI for real-time support and post-assignment analysis, participants will discover how these tools can elevate their performance.

They will explore different modes of interpretation, including simultaneous, consecutive, and sight translation, with a focus on how each can be used to accurately convey the content and intent of their clients’ messages. Ethical dilemmas will be a central focus, allowing participants to reflect on scenarios where impartiality is crucial—such as avoiding the expression of personal opinions or bias. However, the sessions will also emphasize the interpreter's role in advocacy and in bridging cultural gaps when necessary. Participants will learn how to effectively explain cultural differences or practices only when these explanations are essential for facilitating understanding and communication. In addition to skill-building, these sessions will foster professional growth by encouraging participants to expand their support networks, share insights, and collaborate with colleagues. They will have opportunities to create and contribute resources, such as glossaries of medical terminology, ethical decision-making frameworks, and scenario-based practice materials, enriching the collective knowledge and tools available to the group. By the end of these sessions, participants will be better equipped to handle the complex demands of educational and medical interpreting, ensuring they provide accurate, ethical, and culturally competent services in their professional roles. |

| Description: | The success of freelance work needs strategy, consistency, and dedication as much as any other type of work or venture. Freelance interpreters often struggle to find their voice and understand how to set boundaries, define strategies for productivity, and navigate a world that at times is very business-like, and at times is very informal. This webinar will present tried-and-true suggestions and recommendations on how to address those items and more – the Do’s -, and how to remain alert and avoid pitfalls – the Dont’s – that can make or break any freelancer who has a vocation for service.

We will learn related treatments and terminology associated with this disease, as well as some cultural aspects. Interpreters will also learn about factors that contribute to patients becoming agitated and potentially dangerous to themselves or others. We will discuss best practices for interpreting for the LEP who may be affected by this broad category of symptoms. |

| Description: | The National Council on Interpreting in Health Care reports how “individuals who identify as Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, Intersex or Asexual (LGBTQIA) face significant barriers in accessing health care. These barriers are heightened when a person is both LGBTQIA and also limited English proficient (LEP).” This course will address best practices in interpreting in the LGBTQIA community. It will examine the ethics associated with interpreting for a non-binary community such as regulatory protections, non-discrimination laws, standards of care, and cultural biases. The class is designed to help the professional interpreter develop the skills necessary to interpret in the LGBTQIA population such providing a glossary of terms commonly used in the medical setting, both in English and in other languages. Lastly, the interpreter will develop skills in interpreting sensitive health issues such as sexual history, and gender-affirming surgery appointments. |

| Description: | This class is designed to assist interpreters to learn best practices while interpreting cancer-
related appointments. From the first cancer diagnosis, during a succession of treatment
methods, to possible end of life care, patients are often faced with uncertainty and fear.
Interpreters should learn how best to support patients through clear language and good
interpreting skills. The class looks at types of cancers, their progression, how culture may come
into play, and how interpreters can take steps to best care for themselves throughout the
process. |

| Description: | A code of ethics delineates the core values and principles that guide the decision-making process within a particular profession or among a group of professionals. Today, interpreters and translators in education have their own codes of ethics that encourage critical thinking, responsible judgment, and ethical considerations when navigating professional situations and dilemmas rather than dictating rigid regulations or imposing prescriptive behaviors. The significant effort invested in creating the National Codes of Ethics for Interpreters and Translators in Education identified Communicative Autonomy and Cultural Awareness as the ethical framework, enabled by the ethical application of critical thinking, ethical decision-making, and advocacy as a strategy. This effort also raised the issue of where these codes fall within the landscape of codes of ethics of other interpreting/translation specializations and associations. It also prompted a fundamental reconsideration of the significance of an ethical behavior on the part of Interpreters and translators across fields of specializations, and of the role that cultural awareness and advocacy play in their ethical conduct. Join us for an active, hands-on session where we will explore how to effectively operate within the framework of the National Codes of Ethics for Interpreters and Translators in Education and address ethical issues our roles may face in educational settings and beyond. |

They will discuss with PowerPoint, prompt and audience response, and poll questions about how to navigate each clients' unique language needs. This will conclude with a recap of the presentation, contact info exchange if necessary and a short Q&A session if time permits.
-Open with brief introductions, backgrounds and expectations for the presentation.
-Begin by outlining common questions from consumers regarding how a certain concept, word or phrase is interpreted/translated.
-Explain what we all know to be true; no two interpreters will translate exactly the same due to how nuanced both language and each client is for any given situation.
-Give examples then prompt audience interaction to practice give and take with consumers. Hypotheticals will increase in difficulty.
-Open it up for questions and discussion.
-Close presentation with thank you's and how to follow up.
DESCRIPTION AND MATERIALS:
The presentation will utilize PowerPoint and poll questions. It will be fully virtual, live streamed and available on-demand post webinar.

| Description: | Cardiology is a medical specialty and a branch of internal medicine that deals with the diagnosing and treatment of heart conditions such as congenital defects, coronary artery disease, electrophysiology, heart failure and valvular heart disease. It is often times not sufficient for interpreters to simply “know words” and therefore it is incumbent that we truly understand what is really going on. |

| Description: | In the service-based professions such as teaching, medicine and law, practitioners are encouraged to be reflective in their practice. That is, considering the complexity and consequential impact of their work, it is advisable for practitioners to think and act in deliberate ways. Reflective practice is used as a means for developing new skills, ensuring quality service, and dealing with occupational stressors. Research has shown that structured reflective practice, such as in the practice of case conferencing, leads to improved decision-making skills, reasoning skills and is protective against burnout.
Interpreters are very late to the practice of case conferencing and other types of structured reflection and are only beginning to recognize the need for and benefits of reflective practice. However, very few practitioners, educators and trainers have learned effective tools for analyzing cases. This presentation explains the need for and some of the techniques of case conferencing. Attending this workshop will help to raise awareness around the need for structured reflective practice and will offer further learning opportunities to develop case conferencing leader skills.

| Presenter: | Nate Philips |

| Description: | Healthcare interpreters are regularly exposed to situations that affect them psychologically and emotionally and the negative emotional effects interpreters in this setting have to deal with can impact their well-being and job performance. Many studies including Tiselius et al. (2020), Li et al (2022), Bontempo and Malcolm (2012), Rajpoot et al. (2020) have looked at this aspect of healthcare interpreting. This presentation aims to coalesce this research into one common literature review to discuss the causes of negative emotional effects that healthcare interpreters experience as well as the institutional responses to these issues and how those responses effectively support or fail to support the interpreters. The presentation discusses findings about the most stressful situations for healthcare interpreters which can include not being able to intervene when a patient is treated unfairly and interpreting for clients who experienced intense forms of trauma. Additionally, we will discuss how patients’ history of trauma affects interpreters. After looking at potential forms of institutional support, the conclusion will look towards where future research can pick up from these findings and how the institutional support mechanisms could be implemented. |

| Presenter: | Natalya Mytareva, MA, ICE-CCP |
|---|
| Description: | In 2023, CCHI introduced a new performance credential for healthcare interpreters, CoreCHI-Performance™, with a monolingual standardized oral performance test in English (English-to-English or EtoE). This innovative approach provides an assessment mechanism for interpreters of less common languages, where creating a dual-language performance exam is often unfeasible. The EtoE evaluates interpreting readiness via indirect methods that assess cognitive interpreting skills. With the sunset of the knowledge-based CoreCHI™ credential in 2025-2027, interpreters will be required to pass a performance exam in order to get certified. This would increase the demand for skill-building training programs, and create a new demand for programs that teach cognitive interpreting skills.
The presenter will discuss various components of the EtoE exam such as paraphrasing, listening comprehension, shadowing, memory capacity, and reading comprehension, and how they can be incorporated into interpreter training programs. Teaching techniques for different training modalities and formats will be discussed, e.g., live webinar, self-paced online course, a conference presentation, longer in-person or live online course. The presenter will explain the importance of feedback and illustrate types of feedback relevant for improving cognitive interpreting skills. Concepts presented in this webinar are applicable for all interpreter training providers regardless of the certification status of their learners.

We will study the affordances and constraints of the remote medium compared with in-person interpreting by analyzing real-life interpreting scenarios, going over the different ethical, technical, and linguistic issues that prevent the smooth flow of communication, and by offering practical solutions such as scripting and rapport-building that will equip remote interpreters with the soft skills needed to integrate themselves successfully into the medical encounter.

| Description: | Leading by example is one of the best ways for interpreter educators to encourage learners to adopt new skills, strategies, and ways of thinking. However, when it comes to the ethical principle of impartiality this can be a major challenge, namely due to educators' own unconscious biases. In this session, interpreter educators will be challenged to examine their own biases, especially as related to sex, sexuality, and gender. By deconstructing the bias of cisheteronormativity, we’ll examine how we may inadvertently inculcate biases in our students, as well as the effects the perpetuation of these biases may have. These effects aren't just limited to our students, but can also extend to our students' colleagues, consumers of their interpretation services, and beyond. Participants will be given tools and tips to formulate a plan to address the perpetuation of cisheteronormativity in their teaching practices. |

| Description: | COEs (Codes of Ethics) are a set of guiding principles that intend to help individuals in their decision-making process when encountering dilemmas or choosing a best practice. Although COEs are typically supplemented by SOPs (Standards of Practice), they don't provide guidance on all situations an individual might encounter or consider the context in which these situations occur. Interpreters often face this dilemma, where they need help finding specific advice for the problems they encounter or feel like contributing factors add a layer of complexity to the decision-making process. This workshop explains how interpreters can use critical thinking to overcome these challenges. |

Social ideology determines our views of wellness, disease, health care, aging, death and burial, which vary across cultures and over time. Differences between traditional and Western medicine are explored, as are economic and political influences in the area of health care. The medical interpreter is called upon to interpret culture and at times to advocate for the patient. |

|---|
| Description: | The primary goal of healthcare interpreters is to facilitate communicative interactions for the purposes of improving the patient’s clinical outcome. This presentation invites interpreters to discuss and debate the following questions-- How is the interpreter’s primary goal impacted when the patient has died? Are interpreters at an increased risk for PTSD due to their unique role as “actor” playing the part of all grieving participants, as well as playing the part of "bearer of bad news" and feeling like an accomplice to a crime? What techniques might help protect the interpreter from the effects of interpreting before, during, and after patient death? How can we prevent interpreter burnout or retraumatizing the interpreter? What interventions might an interpreter make so as not to contribute to any unnecessary grief for the patient's loved ones who are left behind? Ultimately, we will explore all of this and how to assure our practices adhere to our field's standards of practice and code of ethics. |

| Description: | This hands-on session will present the basic theory and skills necessary to learn, monitor, and improve one’s ability to interpret in the simultaneous mode. We will start with a framework for understanding the appropriate use of simultaneous in the field of community interpreting, based on the national standards of practice. After examining some theoretical models of interpreting, we will break down this mode into skills that can be learned, and spend much of our time practicing exercises that help build those skills. We will cover apps and software to use when practicing simultaneous, the importance of continuous monitoring and improvement, and groups that can help with future deliberate practice. To get the most out of this session, please bring a recording device (including a phone, iPad or digital recorder) and a pair of headphones/earbuds for that device. |

| Description: | Interpreters provide a service that is mentally taxing and requires constant upkeep. Aside from assignment-specific research and preparation, interpreters must regularly practice their interpreting techniques to maintain and improve the quality of their renditions. Reflexive practice is a common technique used to enhance any interpreting skills, however, a rubric to evaluate our own performance and a path towards improving deficiencies is essential to level up one's interpreting. This session will apply deliberate practice principles to enhancing interpreting skills and provide a rubric along with skill enhancement exercise suggestions to interpreters looking to improve the quality of their renditions. |

| Description: | Explore strategies for constructive feedback and deliberate practice in this interactive webinar, focusing on refining interpreting skills through guided reflection, repetition, and collaboration.
Interpreting expertise cannot be achieved by simply working as an interpreter for a long time. Deliberate practice is needed to attain expertise, and two of the cornerstones of deliberate practice are constructive feedback and repetition. This webinar will help you develop tools to increase the value of the feedback you give to yourself and colleagues. You will be given a rubric to use when giving yourself or others feedback and practice giving constructive, well-argued feedback for interpreters.
During the session, you will interpret a short example scenario while recording yourself, and then you will reflect on your recordings and repeat the scenario to improve. This will give you time to actively apply what you learn during the webinar. You will also receive temporary two-month access to Terp (https://terp.app), an interactive platform for practicing interpreting. You will receive instructions on how to complete practice sessions on Terp and send these practice sessions (which will include recordings of your interpretations) to colleagues to request feedback from them. These learning activities will help you unlock the power of constructive feedback and repetition.

| Description: | Series Abstract:
Medical interpreters are required to interpret in a wide variety of settings with many different patients and a wide variety of providers including in palliative care. Mastering a broad range of terminology and practice norms is only a part of this challenging role within serious illness and end-of-life care. Medical interpreters must also gain skills working with providers from chaplains to social workers, nurse practitioners to pharmacists, and physician’s assistants to physicians. At the same time, they must consistently adhere to their professional standards of practice and code of ethics.
The following series of facilitated continuing education dialogues provide medical interpreter participants with an opportunity to dialogue directly with palliative care social workers, chaplains, a psychologist, and attending physicians. The dialogues will address both adult and pediatric concerns within the holistic approach to serious illness and end-of-life care.
In addition, two sessions will address the standards of practice. There will be sessions on grief and loss, vicarious trauma, and a holistic approach to prevent burnout or compassion fatigue. Finally, one session will be devoted to understanding transference and countertransference and managing one’s emotional reactions to the work. |

| Description: | Increasingly, it's possible to have a digital life that feels completely separate from your physical one. But digital spaces aren't just for family photos, cat videos, and doomscrolling—they are powerful venues where helpful communities meet and interact, and where you just might find your next client.
The purpose of this webinar is to introduce interpreters to the Worker’s Compensation System in the United States.
Interpreters must understand and build technical terminology, basic vocabulary, and concepts when they interpret for workers who get hurt on the job and must navigate through the Worker’s Comp System, as it is also known.
The interpreter must be knowledgeable in different types of vocabulary: workplace safety basics, use of tools and machinery, health and ergonomics, pain and injury terms, types of work accidents, job descriptions, functional capacity programs, and specialized acronyms. They also need to know the forms to file claims, receive benefits, and to attend hearings at the Worker Compensation Appeals Board assignments.
We will review terminology, technical vocabulary, forms, and develop practical skill-building exercises, with examples from the Worker’s Comp System in California.

| Description: | Birth control or contraception is any method, medicine, or device used to prevent pregnancy. There are many different options available depending on the way they work. In the United States, when a patient requests information about birth control the provider explains the available options. Then, the patient makes a decision based on the explanations provided.
As English/Spanish interpreters, we can only interpret what we understand. Therefore, we need to be familiarized with male and female reproductive system, the basic methods of birth control, and the different terminology in English and Spanish that may be used during this type of medical encounter.
After this 2-hour English/Spanish class, participants will be familiar with the fundamental terminology related to the male and female reproductive system, and the different methods of birth control in both languages. This class will be conducted in Spanish with vocabulary in English.

| Description: | Exposure to abuse and other adverse experiences increases a person’s lifelong potential for serious health problems; little to no self-esteem; a deep, pervasive sadness; problems bonding with others; and a tendency towards self-destruction. Unfortunately, because emotional abuse is often tolerated or because the abusive parents are very secretive in their abuse, emotionally abused children will assume that how they were treated at home was normal. Therefore, it is important for people, especially those working with such individuals, to be mindful of the fact that so many people come to a healthcare interaction with a history of trauma of abuse. By understanding a patient’s life experiences and working alongside trained healthcare providers, we as interpreters can contribute to an effective care plan that can offer those with Limited English Proficiency a chance to rebuild the connections and trust that were fractured by abuse and betrayal. Please note that the content provided in this workshop is for informational purposes only and does not replace professional advice or counseling. |

| Description: | Research in neuroscience and interpersonal neurobiology underscores the critical role of the professional as the external regulator, necessary not only to support the client in navigating the intensity of their experiences for integration but also to mitigate the impact of secondary traumatization. This workshop delves into this imperative during trauma integration for two primary reasons: Firstly, the child (or adult) relies on borrowing the professional’s regulatory capacity to confront their traumatic thoughts, feelings, and sensations in a session. Secondly, the professionals’ adeptness in self-regulation amidst intensity enhances their presence and attunement with the client, simultaneously safeguarding the health and longevity of their own nervous system. Thirdly, the role interpreters play when facilitating communication for Limited English Proficient and Deaf and Hard of hearing patients and the interpreter’s role in external regulation dynamic during the encounters.
Without the professional's capability to act as the external regulator for the intensity arising during trauma integration, both the client and professional face risks of emotional flooding and high levels of dysregulation in their nervous systems. Over time, this can significantly impact a professional’s endurance in the field, as well as their ability to remain attuned and present with clients.
This engaging and informative workshop equips participants with an understanding of the essential components of becoming an external regulator for trauma integration, including what the client's brain seeks in the environment to signal safety, a deeper comprehension of autonomic nervous system activation, and strategies for professionals to develop their capacity as external regulators while mitigating the risk of secondary traumatization. This workshop will also explore an in-depth understanding of the complex dynamic of a therapeutic encounter and strategies for managing difficult interpreting encounters when working with survivors of trauma. This workshop is for social workers, therapists, interpreters etc.

| Description: | Brain Health is an emerging and growing concept that includes neural development, plasticity, functioning, and recovery across the life course. Good brain health is a state in which every individual can realize their own abilities and optimize their cognitive, emotional, psychological, and behavioral functioning to cope with life situations. Numerous interconnected social and biological determinants, including genetics, play a role in brain development and brain health from pre-conception through the end of life. These determinants influence the way our brains develop, adapt, and respond to stress and adversity, giving way to strategies for both promotion and prevention across the life course. Given the science behind brain health, what are some healthy habits to consider? In this session, learners will practice techniques to enhance their memory capacity. |

| Description: | Many, if not most, of the ethical mistakes made by interpreters tends to come from a place of trying to be helpful, polite, or supportive. But the unintended consequence may be an ethical violation. Understanding role boundaries clearly, can help interpreters navigate the waters of customer service in a way that consistently upholds the Code of Ethics.
This webshop will explore all of the above. Scripts will be shared for positive, professional interaction, and breakout room sessions will offer the opportunity for attendees to practice. |

| Description: | The workshop begins with an introduction to the three main world ethical traditions:
deontology, consequentialism, and virtue ethics. We will see the pros and cons of each and how they interact. The roles of the interpreter will be analyzed in terms of a compliance priority that includes the law, institutional policy, interpreter code of ethics, and one’s conscience. This will be the context for an analysis of Medical Interpreter Ethics, Standards of Practice, and case studies; Legal Interpreter Ethics, Courtroom Protocol, and case studies. Ethical case studies will be discussed in detail, emphasizing which ethical principles were applied to arrive at a decision. Analysis will proceed in the form of an ethical decision tree, which will empower interpreters to make independent, rational, and confident decisions in all ethical situations they may encounter in the future. Each section of the presentation will be followed by interactive discussion.

| Description: | Similar to other professions, healthcare interpreters are expected to follow certain guidelines as they perform their work. A code of ethics offers healthcare interpreters guidance on difficult decisions that they will need to make and a clear explanation of the type of behavior that is considered "ethical" or "correct" or "right" under the circumstances.
This is a self-paced training, designed to give healthcare (or medical) interpreters an overview or a review of the concept of ethics and the ethical principles that they should strive to adhere to as a member of the healthcare team. During this training, you will complete four lessons and three quizzes, including reflection activities and questions about best practices.

However, medical environments present additional challenges and risks for patient safety and information security. In this presentation, translators and interpreters will learn to sift through both the extreme hype on one hand and the extreme fearmongering on the other to identify practical, appropriate uses for translation technology. Language professionals will also learn how to guide other medical professionals who increasingly need education on these ubiquitous technologies that fit in everyone's pockets. |

| Description: | Idioms are a type of informal English that have a different meaning from the words used in the expression. For example, "hold your tongue" or "you are pulling my leg". Proverbs are a short pithy saying in general use, stating a general truth or piece of advice. For example, "Absence makes the heart grow fonder".
As a native Spanish speaker, I knew a many proverbs and idioms in my own language and always enjoyed finding the correct translation or equivalent in English. I started collecting, for obvious reasons, the ones related to body parts and now made a webinar about it!
During this 2-hour live webinar I will teach about idioms and proverbs that include body parts, their meaning, an equivalent in Spanish, and examples! |

Therefore, we need to learn what they mean in English in order to convey their meaning in Spanish and vice versa.

During this 2-hour live webinar, participants will become familiar with idioms that include phrases used in sports, their meaning in English, their equivalent in Spanish, and how to apply them during translating and interpreting.
This class will be taught in Spanish with examples in English and Spanish. English/Spanish interpreters of all levels are welcome.

| Description: | Navigating the American healthcare system can be confusing and overwhelming. For many LEP patients, the US healthcare system provides one more layer of stress and complexity for them to contend with.
As interpreters, we often walk alongside patients as they struggle to navigate the healthcare system to receive the care they need. It is essential that we have a basic understanding of healthcare concepts and terminology.
Health is intricately intertwined with many other aspects of daily living. Patients who don’t have a roof over their heads, enough to eat, stable family situations or a good support network are less likely to achieve optimal health outcomes. Interpreting in a health care setting inevitably involves intersection with the social services.
In this webinar, Cynthia Mauleón will familiarize interpreters with concepts and terminology related to the American healthcare and social services systems.
Learning Objectives:
• Understand the basic format of medical appointments from start to finish.
• Become familiar with the different types of medical providers and other helping roles.
• Have a basic understanding of health insurance concepts and terminology. |

| Description: | Healthcare interpreted sessions that involve medications may be challenging. Many interpreters report struggling to interpret these sessions because of complicated drug names and lack of knowledge about medications. Since being ‘fluent in the language of medications’ can take many years, what could interpreters do to overcome the challenge? This session will answer the question by identifying and providing effective solutions based on known interpreting skills and protocols in order to succeed when interpreting sessions that involve medications.

| Description: | The number of patients receiving care in languages other than English (LOTE) has increased significantly over the past decade. Still, nearly one-third of U.S. hospitals fail to offer language services, and new research indicates that even in hospitals that have language access systems in place, over half of medical communication still occurs without professional interpretation. This workshop will outline how health systems can apply the principles of co-production in building language justice infrastructure that measurably advances health equity. Participants will explore how to adapt tools from the Institute for Healthcare Improvement’s “Engaging People with Lived Experiences” resource collection to enlist local communities in language access co-design and implementation efforts. Participants will also be introduced to replicable and sustainable language access models, how-to strategies for scaling an in-language experience systemwide, and data collection and analysis methods for program evaluation. |

| Description: | An essential skill set for educational interpreters is knowing why, when, and how to stop interpreting to address communication barriers. Interpreters need specific strategies to navigate straightforward requests for clarification or repetition of terms, as well as complex cultural or ethical challenges. Remote interpreting further complicates these challenges. This interactive session will teach participants the strategic intervention model and provide real-life scenarios for practice. By the end of the session, participants should feel comfortable using a quick, effective intervention technique whenever they need to stop interpreting to solve a communication barrier, whether linguistic, ethical, cultural, or technological. |

| Description: | La genética (Genetics) is a branch of biology concerned on how living things receive common traits from previous generations. It studies genes, DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid), chromosomes, genetic variation, and heredity in organisms.
As English/Spanish interpreters, we can only interpret what we understand. Therefore, we need to be familiarized with the fundamental terminology about genetics in English and Spanish since it is used during prenatal diagnosis, newborn screening, genetic counseling, and diagnosis and treatment of genetic diseases. Also, interpreters of languages other-than-Spanish need to understand the information rendered in English in order to find an adequate translation or functional equivalent into their languages.
After this 2-hour English/Spanish class, participants will be familiar with the fundamental terminology, diseases and conditions, diagnosis, and treatments related to genetics in both languages. This class will be conducted in Spanish with vocabulary in English.

This is a 3-hour online workshop that will take place over Zoom, and is geared towards spoken and sign language interpreters who have little to no prior knowledge about this topic. We will also learn terminology that surrounds those various communities and identities, outlining a descriptivist approach to research in working languages. Special considerations for interpreting for these communities and identities will be examined. We will discuss not only the impact our language (spoken or signed) can have on the individuals we interpret for, but also our interpreting colleagues. We anticipate this workshop will be given 1-2 times per year. |

| Description: | This is a 3-hour online workshop that will take place over Zoom, and is geared towards spoken and sign language interpreters who have little to no prior knowledge about this topic. In this session, we will discuss biases related to gender, sexual, and relationship diversity, as well as how these biases, both conscious and unconscious, can have a bearing on the interpreted session. These topics will be explored through the lens of interpreting ethics, including the RID Code of Professional Conduct, NCIHC Code of Ethics, and the AAITE Code of Ethics for Interpreters in Education, among other ethical frameworks. Participants will have an opportunity to consider how queer and LGBTQ+ mental and physical health is impacted by stigma. Participants will also consider to what degree they have an ethical responsibility to either support wellbeing, or prevent harm in interpreted sessions. The main ethical concepts to be discussed are: beneficence & non-maleficence, respect, professionalism, impartiality, and accuracy. We will also explore the physicality of impartiality, and how our facial expressions, body language, tone, reflexes, and even physiological reactions can impact our ability to remain neutral, especially in gender-affirming medical care settings. Because lack of familiarity with gender-affirming care and related procedures can contribute to breakdowns in not only accuracy, but impartiality, we will also explore medical procedures and terminology that might come up during interpreting encounters with gender expansive clients. |

| Description: | Introduction:
This webinar, part of the Transforming Pediatric Healthcare series, focuses on the prevalence
and risks of concussions, particularly in children and older adults. The Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention reports over 2 million concussions in U.S. children under 17, while
recent studies highlight the long-term cognitive effects of multiple concussions, especially in
people over 50. Experts will discuss recent advancements in concussion prevention, testing,
and treatment, as well as strategies to educate families and caregivers on mitigating the impact
of these injuries.
Medical interpreters need to understand the medical and cognitive implications of concussions,
especially given their growing prevalence in both pediatric and older populations. This
knowledge will help them accurately interpret conversations between healthcare providers and
non-English-speaking patients or families, ensuring that critical information about prevention,
treatment options, and cognitive risks is conveyed effectively. Additionally, interpreters play a
key role in facilitating education on concussion management within diverse communities |

| Description: | HealthPartners is offering a training for medical interpreters on Health Literacy. To maintain their own health and the health of their families and communities, patients and plan members rely heavily on the health information that is available to them. Yet tens of millions of individuals are not able to understand and use the information that their doctor, clinic, hospital, or health plan share with them. Limited health literacy takes a tremendous toll, particularly on the already-underserved populations. Improving health literacy is a key to advancing health equity. This training is an introduction to health literacy. |

| Description: | MasterWord presents a fast-moving and example-filled overview of HIPAA for Medical Interpreters. It addresses the many issues particular to interpreters, and focuses on the types of breaches which most frequently occur. The right of patients under HIPAA to see and request copies of their own medical chart is also covered.
HIPAA for medical interpreters is specifically designed to prepare you to practice within HIPAA legal guidelines relating to privacy of patient information.
All interpreters know that they are not supposed to reveal the names of their patients. But how much information can be shared with family members who accompanied the patient to the hospital? When does a teenage patient have rights to privacy from his parents? Does a patient have rights to see his own record, to get a copy of his own record, and to restrict his name appearing on the inpatient or ER directory? How can reminder calls be made in a HIPAA-compliant way? What should one do if one has lost paperwork with patient information on it? |

| Description: | As interpreters, particularly in the field of healthcare, we are exposed to and have undoubtably received education and training on HIPAA and HIPAA Compliance. For medical interpreters, this training usually happens in the initial forty-hour course (40 hour). For in house interpreters, this training is annual. For freelancers, however, it does not work that way. Some agencies may provide training or at least offer recommendations as to where the contractor may obtain training. It is surprising to know that what freelancers
receive, regarding HIPAA and HIPAA Compliance, is geared towards an employee/employer relationship. |

| Description: | There currently is a great need for healthcare interpreters and translators to work in the field of human resources. Sometimes this may be to interpret in presentations explaining employee healthcare benefits, to interpret in meetings where workers express grievances with union representatives, for the translation of employee manuals/handbooks or policy and procedure manuals, or for anything dealing with workplace terminology. Interpreters must be trained on the possible scenarios & vocabulary that can come up in this field and what renditions are best suitable for this specialized terminology. |

| Description: | Human trafficking is a crime that involves compelling or coercing a person to provide labor or services, or to engage in commercial sex acts. Some of the legal and illicit industries and sectors where they are forced to provide labor/services include hospitality, traveling sales crews, agriculture, janitorial services, construction, landscaping, restaurants, factories, care for persons with disabilities, salon services, massage parlors, retail services, fairs and carnivals, peddling and begging, drug smuggling and distribution, religious institutions, childcare, and domestic work.
Interpreters many times play a key role in human trafficking cases. Identifying victims, interviewing survivors, and designing interventions for recovery all often require the assistance of a trained interpreter. On many occasions, these language professionals come from the same national, political, and cultural context as the survivors for whom they are interpreting.
This 3-hr webinar, guided by an interpreter with experience in human trafficking cases, will help participants understand the challenges encountered in these types of assignments, what their involvement will be as interpreters, important boundaries, case work study from past cases, common lingo, legal terminology, CPS involvement, mental health care, and real-life scenarios. |

| Description: | Few things build trust in any relationship as quickly as a joke. This element of human interaction is shared across all cultures differently. When an interpreter hears a joke or sarcasm they may get nervous about the delivery of the message. During this presentation participants will learn about ways to strengthen the patient provider relationship through the accurate interpretation of humor. We will analyze shades of meaning in our effort to preserve spontaneity in our interpretations of jokes, where timing is everything. Come enjoy and learn together. |

| Description: | Certification, whether as translators or interpreters, is a necessary step to prove our commitment to the profession and that our skills and knowledge meet the minimum requirements. After we get certified, we need to continue growing as professionals and honing our skills. The best way to prove this is getting recertified. This means that, despite the years, we still meet the minimum requirements and that we are committed to continue learning. Unfortunately, newly certified translators or interpreters, may not know where to start, what are the requirements for recertification, or may find that this process is confusing or stressful. After this 1-hour language-neutral (English) webinar, participants will be familiar with the different requirements for recertification for a medical interpreter certification (CHI, CMI, DSHS, and Oregon) and a court interpreter certification (in California), how to get organized, and tips to meet the recertification deadline without stress. This class is taught in English for translators and interpreters of all languages. |

| Description: | Healthcare interpreters invest a significant amount of time in learning medical terminology and the ins and outs of the US healthcare system - and rightly so. However, interpreting encounters in healthcare settings are not all dense medical jargon. They involve real people speaking real language, which may include small talk, stories, jokes, idioms, and cultural references. It might seem that interpreting idioms is less important than getting the medical facts right, but idioms may contain key messages such as descriptions of a patient's progress or lack thereof and a speaker's attitude toward the situation. This 2-hour self-paced class will equip participants with strategies for dealing with idioms and cultural references and allow participants to develop the newly acquired skills through practice activities. At the end of the class, participants will be provided with a list of suggested resources for further practice and study of idioms.
Materials include a PowerPoint presentation with embedded video of the presenter, several sets of consecutive interpretation practice exercises, additional practice and review exercises, suggested resources for further study of idioms, and an end-of course assessment. The didactic part of the presentation was designed using credible professional sources and references in the fields of medical interpreting, conference interpreting and Teaching English as a Second Language (TESOL) describing types of idiomatic expressions and best practices for handling them. These are supplemented by real-life examples of idiomatic language used in medical contexts collected by the trainer. |

| Description: | From interpreting the questions of, ‘how has your mood been’ to, ‘how do you think the interpreter feels about you’, from diagnostic criteria to the experience of transference, mental health interpreting requires a unique skill set that interpreters might not immediately recognize. While some job demands certainly appear to be unique (e.g., talking about suicide), others will appear to be deceptively straightforward. This presentation aims to raise interpreting practitioners’ awareness around the unique demands in mental health settings – from the mindset of diagnostics to the nature of the dynamics |

| Description: | The National Board requires recertification every 5 years.
The recertification requirements have been developed to promote continued competence, the component of professional development that addresses the minimum requirements of contemporary practice. This means maintaining the skills and knowledge required for accurate, complete and competent medical interpretation delivered in an ethical and professional manner. Recertification provides an opportunity for interpreters to strengthen and expand their knowledge and skills. To achieve this purpose, continuing education units are only accepted for training directly related to medical interpretation.
In this presentation NBMCI and IMIA staff will provide all the information CMIs need to know about collecting CEUs and getting ready for recertification. |

Using seven years of data from Liberty Language Services, we will evaluate case studies in which an interpreter's behavior caused their client to complain. This walk-through will serve to help interpreters to not only identify but also avoid behaviors that negatively affect the interpreting experience. An analysis of these mistakes will be a discussion about the ways in which the code of ethics was violated by the interpreter. A small portion at the end of the workshop will be set aside for questions from the conference attendees, and medical interpreters in the audience who can also their own experiences.

| Description: | A recent study from the William Institute estimates that about 1.4 million transgender people live in the US. In light of recent federal legislation, cultural shifts, and an emerging population of transgender individuals in the media and public sphere, this community has become more visible. Thus, the prevalence of interpretation encounters with transgender patients is surfacing as a commonality. The transgender community faces a wide range of health disparities. Studies from the William Institute indicate that the rate of attempted suicide among transgender individuals is 41%. Access to quality healthcare is crucial in reducing these disparities. Regardless of opinion or politics, we as interpreters should be prepared to provide the highest level of care to all of our patients. This training was created with the goal of educating interpreters on best practices for working with transgender individuals in need of both basic and trans-specific healthcare. |

| Description: | Key Information about Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD).
In order to effectively communicate as interpreters with patients struggling with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), it is crucial to grasp the underlying concepts to employ accurate terminology. Start by comprehending the functioning and purpose of our kidneys. Familiarize with some of CKD symptoms, and what to do next upon diagnosis. Recognize potential causes, and know the different stages of CKD, including the progression to Kidney Failure/ESRD. Distinguish the difference between these two. Also, as interpreters, be prepared to leverage advocacy through clarification and repetition to explain available treatment options, empowering patients through education so they can make informed decisions about their future health care plan. |

|---|
| Description: | Due to the broader implementation of laws regarding language services in the healthcare setting, the need for interpreting and translation services is constantly expanding. However, there is still lack of knowledge on what those two disciplines entail and oftentimes professional interpreters and translators are put on the spot and asked to perform duties that fall outside their expertise and/or skills. Interpreting and translation, although related disciplines, require different skills which need to be acquired through specific training. An example of how sometimes language professionals are expected to perform out of their capability, is sight translation. As on-site healthcare interpreters many of us have been asked to “read out loud” a document written in English to a patient in their native language with the purpose of saving some time to the provider or staff who can complete other patient-related tasks in the meantime. Even though in some instances it may be a reasonable request, other times it involves a large and complex text that should have been translated in advance.

| Description: | Hispanic/Latino people are more likely to develop diabetes in their lifetime compares to their non-Hispanic/Latino counterparts. Therefore, as translators and interpreters, we need to be familiar with the basic terminology related to diabetes as it comes up during any type of medical encounter.
Diabetes is a disease that occurs when a person’s body doesn’t make enough of the hormone insulin or can’t use it properly. It affects many body parts and has different long-term consequences and complications.
During this 2-hour webinar, participants will become familiar with basic concepts and terminology about diabetes, signs and symptoms, treatment, and long-term complications in English and Spanish. This class is taught in Spanish with terminology in English. English/Spanish translators and interpreters of all levels are welcome.

| Description: | The Office of Immigration and Customs Enforcement has been using Video Remote Interpreting since 1996 to conduct immigration hearings for non-English and hard of hearing individuals. Despite this, to date, no standardized, industry-wide best practices have been established regarding remote interpreting for court, medical, education, community interpreters, or others. The widespread use of remote technologies caused by the pandemic mobilized many organizations to suggest best practices for effective remote interpreting. Based on the available literature, online resources, and instructor’s experience, this webinar will study what ethical issues (confidentiality, accuracy, etc.) may be affected by the use of these technologies and propose sound solutions to the problems that may arise. |

| Description: | BIDMC INTERPRETER ETHICS ROUNDS is a forum for BIDMC per diem and staff interpreters, unless otherwise specified. This workshop is one of a Series of 6 lunch-time, 1-hour workshops presented throughout the calendar year. It is a forum for interpreters who have found themselves in ethically challenging situations to share the story with colleagues. Attendees participate in a discussion led by a staff moderator/discussant/presenter and benefit from learning relevant information and reflecting on various possible approaches that may be effective for them to take if they find themselves in similar situations. Alternatively, a guest presenter will present a topic with links to interpreter Ethics and Standards of Practice. A recording of the webinar may be posted for BIDMC interpreters who could not attend in person.
The members of the care team will present the case. The patient consistently and repeatedly refused medical interpreter services throughout his course of care and formally requested that interpreter services no longer be offered while receiving treatment. Could including the medical interpreter have had any impact on the outcome? What would be the way of providing the care respecting the patient’s autonomy?
During the case presentation, we will discuss various dilemmas in postoperative care for non-English speaking patients. Among the ethical challenges presented will be the aspect of patient autonomy with regard to adaptive preferences and informed consent, the principles of beneficence and nonmaleficence in the context of patients with language barriers, etc.
Additionally, we will reflect on the appropriate ways of including the medical interpreter in the healthcare team with respect to the patient’s preferred language of communication and the provider’s intention to avoid miscommunication and ensure fully informed care. Ethical dilemmas in complex postoperative care often require a multidisciplinary approach. Therefore, we will discuss the linguistic and cultural aspects of care in patients with limited English proficiency. |

The interpreter was requested for an over-the-phone interpretation during a pelvic ultrasound appointment. When the interpreter called, she learned that the ultrasound technician and the patient had a conflict. The interpreter was familiar with mediation techniques. How will she navigate through the conflict?
There are different points of view on whether or not an interpreter should take any part in managing the conflict situation. One point of view is that the interpreter should not interfere in the conversation in any way and "just interpret". The second point of view is that within a conversation, there may be space for mediator techniques to be used that can help expose the cause of the conflict and thus contribute to its resolution. Moreover, interpreters working in different settings (for example, in a hospital, and in an agency) may have different opinions on this matter due to the different workflow organization.
We will learn the definition of a conflict, discuss the similarities of mediators' and interpreters' codes of ethics and compare two versions of a scenario. In one version, the interpreter conveys the messages accurately and completely, but the outcome is not ideal. In the other version, the interpreter occasionally intervenes to improve the outcome. Keeping in mind the value of beneficence towards all the parties and the shared goal of good patient care, we will consider various points of view on applying the mediation techniques during an interpretation encounter. |

We will approach the supervision session from the social worker’s perspective, focusing on how they handle the feelings of both the provider and the interpreter toward the patient during clinical encounters. Supervision, or consultation, plays an important role in helping clinicians understand the patient's reactions and dynamics and their impact on other participants in the encounter. Through supervision and consultation, strategies can be developed to work with the patient respectfully and effectively. In this session, one of the interpreters will share their experience of working with a difficult, verbally abusive patient over many years. We will reflect on the patient’s cultural and clinical background to understand how it might have influenced their behavior, and the interpreter will share their feelings about working with this patient.
Furthermore, we will explore the criteria for evaluating disruptive patient behavior through BIDMC's violence prevention programs and consider various approaches to managing challenging patients. Since BIDMC's programs cover a wide range of disruptive behaviors, we will discuss whether this particular patient's behavior falls under patient management or within the BIDMC violence prevention program. We will also outline possible future steps and consider the interpreter's role as a crucial part of the clinical team in managing difficult patient behavior. |

A 94-year-old patient was admitted to the intensive care unit with multi-organ failure. The medical team conducts several discussions with the family about the goals of care but cannot find common ground. An interpreter interpreted via phone during all goals of care encounters. After the third goals of care meeting both the team and family are frustrated. Is there something an interpreter can do to help the medical team and the family communicate more effectively?
Interpreter Trainings recommend a pre-encounter huddle with clinicians; however, this seldom occurs in practice. If the interpreter is not included in pre-encounter huddle, the interpreter is “parachuted in” to the clinical encounter with no context, no clinical information, and no information on the outcomes of previous meetings.
We will hear the clinician’s perspective on the importance of including interpreters in the pre-session huddle and debriefing post-session to improve communications in support the shared goal of good patient care. We will consider how the interpreter can ask to be included in a pre- or post- meeting with the team with the goal of improving communication and mutual understanding, especially when interpreting remotely. |

| Description: | For interpreters, conversations involving the end of life can be among the most difficult to convey — not only linguistically and culturally, but personally. Providers often approach this topic obliquely, making it hard to convey their real meaning, and families can react in any manner of ways. Programs such as hospice, palliative care, and spiritual care through a chaplain can be unfamiliar to patients. And then, there are the interpreter’s own feelings to consider.
This interactive seven-hour workshop is designed to prepare experienced healthcare interpreters to provide services in end-of-life situations. It includes:
• An Introduction to Interpreting at the End of Life, including:
o The difference between hospice, palliative care and ICUs.
o Working with chaplains.
o The physiology of death
o The Kubler-Ross Grief Cycle.
• The Vocabulary of Palliative Care and Hospice:
o exercises with English vocabulary.
o exercises in conversion to a language other than English.
• Practice interpreting exercises in end-of-life scenarios.
• Sight Translation of DNR and POLST forms.
• The Impact of Emotion and Belief on Interpreting.
Bilingual glossaries, conversion exercises and interpreting exercises will be provided in Spanish, Russian, Vietnamese, traditional and simplified Chinese, Tagalog and Korean.

This class in two parts is a comprehensive guide to interpreting adult cardiology encounters. As we will mention throughout the course, cardiology as a topic of discussion comes up across care settings. For example, the Interpreter must be prepared to interpret cardiology content in the Emergency Room, in the Hypertension Clinic, in the Diabetes Clinic, and during consents for surgery.
Our objectives for this course are that by the end of the class the Interpreter will:
Realize the scope and the high stakes of modern cardiology medicine. The Interpreter must learn about many different organ systems and types of interventions in order to competently interpret for a patient with cardiac disease |

| Description: | This self-paced online course for all healthcare interpreters utilizes the same curriculum as Registry ID #22-1221, and was developed in collaboration with the author, adapting the content for an asynchronous, self-paced online learning environment.
Genetic science now allows providers to identify patients who may have a genetic predisposition to getting certain cancers, allowing them to take extra precautions. Interpreting for these appointments requires understanding both genetics and oncology. This course teaches basic concepts in genetics and oncology through didactic presentations, interactive exercises, and game-based learning activities. The course also includes practice with English vocabulary, and sentence conversion from English to the patient language(s), with model texts for self-evaluation provided in Spanish, Arabic and Simplified Chinese. Resource downloads are provided in Spanish, Arabic, Russian and Traditional Chinese. The course will help interpreters to work with genetic counselors, and with patients identified as having cancer, or who may have an elevated risk of cancer. Participants should be comfortable with English-language presentations of science content at the secondary school level. |

| Description: | Forensic evaluations are used in many contexts including healthcare settings, legal criminal proceedings, and immigration hearings. A successful forensic evaluation often requires the interviewee to detail uncomfortable and upsetting information about their lives. In this workshop, participants will learn from a physician and a certified medical interpreter about the format, flow, and questions contained in a typical forensic evaluation, as well as best practices for conducting the interview via an interpreter. We will discuss pre-session preparation, tips for establishing rapport, and strategies for working with clients using a trauma-informed approach. The workshop will involve didactic teaching with extensive participant interaction and discussion in addition to a one-hour practice period in which attendees will work on three realistic scenarios the trainers have identified as particularly difficult. Finally, we will conclude with a discussion of additional training resources and ways to get involved in forensic evaluations moving forward. |

| Description: | Approximately 10% of individuals struggle with infertility problems. The chances are that you know someone who has been affected by difficulty trying to conceive or have a baby. Unlike many medical specialties, reproductive endocrinology is rarely covered by medical insurance. Most patients who seek these treatments have saved for years to see a specialist that can help them try to conceive and have a pregnancy that ends in a live birth.
The stakes are high for limited English proficient patients who seek this type of medical care. It is imperative these patients receive accurate information from an interpreter who understands the physical, emotional, and financial struggles they have endured to receive this care.
During this four-hour webinar, interpreters will hear from a patient, named Sarah, who has experienced infertility struggles. Sarah will share about her struggles with polycystic ovary syndrome which caused her difficulty conceiving a child. She will share about the hardships she and her husband experienced throughout their infertility journey. You will also get a chance to practice what it would be like to interpret for a patient like Sarah through guided consecutive interpreting practice. |

Obstetric care does not end after a baby is delivered. Interpreters are often called to interpret for new mothers in the postpartum unit to discuss lactation, feeding, newborn screening, newborn cares, and postpartum care. This education is comprehensive and may take hours. Like any specialty area, postpartum teaching has its own terminology. Additionally, you will hear about how this care is different for women who have experienced a pregnancy loss. |

| Description: | Spiritual Care plays a unique yet essential role in caring for patients, whether the patient practices a particular religion or needs an additional layer of support in the face of a life-changing health event. Even the most experienced interpreters may feel uncertain when interpreting for spiritual care encounters - concerns can range from not being familiar with sacred texts to being able to do a good job when you don't share the patients' beliefs. This presentation will introduce the participants to the work of spiritual care providers, outline specific challenges that interpreters may face when interpreting during spiritual care encounters and discuss strategies for overcoming them. |

| Description: | Elderly patients make up a significant portion of individuals with limited English proficiency within immigrant communities. Working with them can present various communication challenges for both healthcare providers and interpreters. This challenges stem from limited mobility, memory impairments, chronic physical or mental health conditions, palliative care, severe chronic pain, and sensory impairments such as hearing or vision loss. Moreover, older patients with LEP introduce unique cultural challenges related to personal space, gender, age, and overall perception of communication. Being able to recognize and address these issues, along with attending to emotional needs of elderly patients enables smoother flow of communication and more successful interpreting encounters. This presentation is not language-specific and will offer valuable insights for interpreters of various languages. |

| Presenter: | Ludmila Golovine |
|---|
| Description: | By the nature of the work they do, interpreters are often faced with opportunities to facilitate communication for vulnerable sectors of society. In this presentation, we will explore one such group, survivors of human trafficking. Participants will be walked through possible experiences of victims of human trafficking, including the voluntary or involuntary departure from their home, and the many characteristics that shape their perspective and frame of reference, including how to recognize red flags to spot trafficking victims. We will also discuss the distinct role interpreters play in various stages of a survivor’s journey and additional communication challenges that arise from the trauma that the victim has experienced. We will touch on the ethical and legal implications interpreting for the victims and survivors may have on the interpreter, including the cross-roads between legal and ethical responsibility to maintain confidentiality and reporting obligations. We will review the tools and resources that are available for victims, survivors and those who serve them, such as interpreters.
Participants will learn the principles of trauma-informed care, gain understanding of trauma-informed interviewing, learn how to avoid re-traumatization of victims and survivors, and garner strategies to manage difficult situations when interpreting for Human Trafficking victims and survivors. |

| Description: | This webinar covers interpreting for check-ups and well visits in the following areas of specialization: Adult Medicine and Pediatrics, often referred to as Family Medicine, and the Dental Clinic. Resources, recommendations and best practices for interpreting in these settings will be shared. The majority of the presentation is devoted into delving into what distinguishes annual check-ups for men vs women, adult vs an infant or child, and what one can expect will happen during these types of visits. With the changes brought about by the implementation of Section 1557, more and more dental practices are scheduling interpreters for their patients. A review of practices for preventative (annual check-ups) and corrective (orthodontia) dental care will be reviewed.
Additional objectives:
Participants will learn terminology and concepts related to development, metrics and measurements;
Participants will get familiar with proper protocols before, during and after the examination. |

| Description: | The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) requires public schools to provide special education and related services to eligible students. But not every child who struggles in school qualifies. To be covered, a child’s school performance must be “adversely affected” by a disability in one of the 13 categories. This 1-hour class is intended to lay the foundation for upcoming classes in a series dedicated to interpreting in the education setting especially during IEP’s. |

| Description: | Oral/Written Language Disorders and Specific Reading Comprehension Deficits are learning disabilities that affect a person’s ability to understand written or oral language. One such diagnosis, dyslexia, is often difficult to understand for parents and students. Dyslexia is a specific learning disability that is neurobiological in origin. With this in mind, interpreters in education and healthcare must have a firm grasp of the terminology, tests, and exercises (drills) that may be frequently encountered (interpreted) during a session; whether during an IEP, or with a Speech Language Pathologist (SLP). |

| Presenter: | Gustavo Negrete |
|---|
| Description: | Digraphia is “a neurological disorder of written expression that impairs writing ability and fine motor skills”. According to the National Center for Learning Disabilities, symptoms of dysgraphia include the following: trouble forming letters/shapes, awkward and or tight gripping of writing implement, difficulty staying within margins or following the lines on paper, following the rules of grammar when writing but not when speaking, difficulty writing and articulating thoughts on paper just to name a few. As English speakers, we may find these signs and symptoms of dysgraphia to be vague. Now imagine how it must be for the LEP parent whose situation is compounded by a language barrier. This is why, as interpreters, we must expend more time gaining a basic understanding of these disabilities as much as we focus on other terminology. |

| Presenter: | Dr. Daniel Teplin, MD |
|---|
| Description: | In this course, Dr. Teplin provides a detailed description with great clinical insight on each of the most common illnesses and disorders that are encountered in mental health. These include: depressive disorders, mood disorders, PTSD, OCD, anxiety disorders, dementia, delirium, and schizophrenia. He will also review the most common testing and treatments used in mental health.
In addition, by means of case studies, this course offers the interpreter with an opportunity to enhance one’s insight regarding mental illness. These case studies will explore the possible fears, biases and other barriers that may prevent interpreters from conveying the message accurately. Also featured in this course are quizzes, glossaries and interactive role-plays.
One of the most important components of this course is its performance-based activities. The course includes over 4 hours of exercises & recorded role-play practices. These performance-based activities were designed to help the healthcare interpreter improve their accuracy while using the consecutive and simultaneous modes.
It is recommended that all students complete all activities under each module in order to get the most out of the course. The goal of the activities is to provide opportunities to integrate newly acquired knowledge into practical interpreting skills.

| Description: | As more treatments and technologies become available to prolong life, patients and families must now consider not only the length of life but what quality of life matters to them. Palliative care is a quick growing field in medicine that focuses on optimizing quality of life through the management of pain and other symptoms, patient comfort, and spiritual support.
A survey conducted by the California Health Care Foundation in 2010 of patients receiving palliative care in that state found that 40 % spoke limited English. Since palliative care depends on regular, clear communication between patients, providers, and families, interpreters are key members of any palliative care team.
For interpreters, conversations involving palliative care, especially those at the end of life, can be of the most difficult to convey, not only linguistically and culturally, but emotionally. This multimedia, interactive seven-hour workshop is designed to prepare experienced medical interpreters to work in palliative care settings.

Many interpreters report struggling to interpret these sessions because of complicated drug names and lack of knowledge about medications. Since being ‘fluent in the language of medications’ can take many years, what could interpreters do to overcome the challenge? This session will answer the question by identifying and providing effective solutions based on known interpreting skills and protocols in order to succeed when interpreting sessions that involve medications. |

groundwork for an understanding of what to expect in mental health
appointments. This will include topics such as: the vocabulary of mental health
providers (decoding lingo), various types of providers (what do all the acronyms
mean), what to expect in mental health sessions and how this varies between
young people and adults, as well as the interpreter’s role in the therapeutic
relationship. The second half of this training will be dedicated to education and
understanding of vicarious trauma. This will include education around ways in
which interpreters in mental health settings are exposed to trauma narratives,
why this is so challenging to hear and experience in the therapy room, and how
to manage the feelings that arise as a result |

| Description: | Vaccines are the newest hot topic across the world.
If you have worked in pediatric medicine though, you are already very familiar with them.
But do we really know everything we’d like to about pediatric vaccines and the diseases that they prevent?
If you’re curious about the science behind different types of vaccines or the systemic damage one tiny pathogen can cause, then this is the workshop for you. We will dive deep into the diseases targeted by the CDC’s pediatric vaccination schedule and the vaccines that are making them history.

This introductory webinar will walk you through the human body systems from the perspective of the interpreter. Participants will gain insight into health care interpreting while enhancing their Spanish medical vocabulary. Presented by an experienced Spanish Medical Interpreter, this webinar will be delivered completely in Spanish. Participants will be required to complete a short quiz at the end of the webinar to receive credit. This is the first in a larger Spanish Medical Terminology Series. It provides an overview of the body systems in Spanish and discusses medical conditions and procedures that interpreters may encounter as they relate to the respective systems. It also provides an overview of the anatomy of each system. This is not an introductory course in the sense that it only covers elementary level medical concepts, rather in that it introduces a (or provides an overview) to allow for further discussion.

| Description: | This teaching session aims to provide medical interpreters with an in-depth understanding of civil rights laws as they relate to healthcare interpretation and language access. The discussion will focus on Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Section 1557 of the Affordable Care Act, while also touching upon the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990.
The session begins by explaining the difference between statutes and regulations, highlighting the legislative, executive, and judicial branches of government and their respective roles in creating, enforcing, and interpreting laws. It emphasizes that both statutes and regulations carry the full force of the law.
The Civil Rights Act of 1964 is explored, addressing the conditions that led to its implementation, the law's purpose, and whether it has achieved its intended goals. The focus then narrows to Title VI of the Act, which specifically pertains to language access in healthcare. The consequences of violating this law are discussed.
The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 is introduced in the context of expanding civil rights, particularly in terms of accommodating individuals with disabilities and their communication needs, such as the provision of interpreters for the deaf or hard of hearing.
The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) is examined next, highlighting its intention to build upon Title VI of the Civil Rights Act and improve language access in healthcare. Section 1557 of the ACA is explained, outlining its requirements for language access, including the provision of qualified medical interpreters.
Enforcement of Title VI and Section 1557 is explored, showcasing success stories and examining the impact of these laws. The need for further strengthening enforcement mechanisms is addressed, and a proposed solution is introduced—the Non-Discrimination Enforcement Rule. Drawing inspiration from the HIPAA Enforcement Rule, this rule suggests implementing civil monetary penalties to enhance enforcement without requiring legislative action.
In concluding the session, the broader social implications of these laws and regulations are discussed, emphasizing the importance of language access and non-discrimination in healthcare. Ongoing challenges in ensuring these rights are highlighted, and the session concludes with a Q&A session to address any remaining queries and gauge audience comprehension. |

| Description: | We are at a crossroads in the language services industry, with Artificial Intelligence (AI) rapidly integrating into the work of interpreters. If AI has the potential to impact our job opportunities, it’s time for us to take action. The time is now for stepping up our game and standing out. Coming out of the shadows is key to raising our status and increasing the value others place on us, which could also save jobs.
Andrea Henry, a veteran interpreter and researcher, will share strategies for interpreters, trainers, administrators, and agency owners to advocate for the relevance of interpreters. She will demonstrate techniques for showcasing our value and educating others about the complex cognitive skills required during interpreting. While the public at large often assumes this job requires us to just be bilingual and nice, we can change that perception and help them understand our sophisticated skill set.
Moreover, a national messaging campaign could help us move forward. Articulating our skillset and the added value we bring to the table has the potential to improve our status, working conditions, and pay. In the end, we might be a little less misunderstood and a lot more valued, potentially keeping AI from taking over too much of our workspace.
This 90-minute interactive webinar will be moderated by Bruce Adelson and will include a 60-minute presentation by Andrea Henry, followed by a 30-minute discussion with Bruce and Q&A session. |

Next, we will work on applying this knowledge through exercises and guided work. Interpreters will work on developing a list of their own symbols and abbreviations, as well as an overall note taking strategy. Finally, we will practice in small groups and in front of all with healthcare-based dialogues. Before the end of the workshop, all participants will prepare a plan for further practice and study. |

In order to effectively communicate as interpreters with patients struggling with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), it is crucial to grasp the underlying concepts to employ accurate terminology. Start by comprehending the functioning and purpose of our kidneys. Familiarize with some of CKD symptoms, and what to do next upon diagnosis. Recognize potential causes, and know the different stages of CKD, including the progression to Kidney Failure/ESRD. Distinguish the difference between these two. Also, as interpreters, be prepared to leverage advocacy through clarification and repetition to explain available treatment options, empowering patients through education so they can make informed decisions about their future kidney health care plan.

| Description: | As medical interpreters, we fill out paperwork at doctor’s offices. A LOT of paperwork. These medical forms may be riddled with terminology. Some of it might seem easy, some we might not be familiar with, and some might just be obscure.
A medical history record is a medical-legal document and the main source of information for a healthcare provider, it is very important that we become a conduit and not a “broken filter” of the information the patient gives the provider.
During this 2-hour *recorded* webinar, participants will become familiar with the general medical history record, its parts and the terminology of each in both languages, as well as items related to child and adult illnesses.
This 2-hour *recorded* webinar is designed for English/Spanish interpreters. This class is taught in Spanish with examples in English. English/Spanish interpreters of all levels are welcome. |

| Description: | While the interpreting profession has had indigenous language interpreters for many years, these individuals often have had few options for training and development to succeed in the profession. At times, the professionals who work in community and healthcare settings have unrealistic expectations for the indigenous interpreter making it more difficult for them to be successful. Two barriers that interpreters have to overcome are lack of equivalencies of westernized terms and concepts that are not found in their mother tongue and difficulties in working with other interpreters when called on to perform relay interpreting. Very often neither the indigenous interpreter nor the healthcare interpreter have had training on performing relay interpreting in consecutive or simultaneous. This presentation will aid in presenting and discussing possible new approaches and solutions to overcome these barriers. |

| Description: | Language proficiency (LP) is the bedrock of the interpreter profession on which the interpreting knowledge and skills develop. In the past couple of decades, the majority of resources and efforts in our field focused on defining and assessing the professional interpreting knowledge and skills, taking LP more or less for granted. It is time for a national consensus on the Language Proficiency for Interpreters (LPI). Without such a consensus, we cannot be equitable and inclusive within our profession. In 2022, CCHI convened the National Task Force on LPI, held several focus group meetings and conducted a national survey on LPI. This presentation will summarize the results of these efforts, define approaches to establishing LPI for different languages, the emerging LPI standards, and the implications for interpreters, managers/recruiters, trainers, and certification across interpreting settings. |

| Description: | Culture and language go hand in hand like chips and salsa or PB&J. Therefore, during a medical encounter we have a Spanish-speaking patient (and Latino culture) and an English-speaking provider (and Anglo culture). These differences play an important role during a medical encounter and can cause misunderstandings and, in the worst case scenario, even death. As medical interpreters, we need to be aware of these differences in order to understand if, when, and how to intervene.
During this 2-hour *recorded* webinar, participants will become familiar with the main differences between the Anglo and Latino culture, how it affects the medical encounter, and understand if, when, and how to intervene. |

| Description: | The internet offers a wealth of resources for interpreters who need to find the best way(s) to convert a particular word or message from one language to another. In addition to medical and general glossaries and dictionaries, there are search engines that are often optimized for different languages and regions of the world.
Remote telephonic and video interpreters, who often work from a desk with an internet connection at hand, may be able to look up difficult phrases in "real time" while listening and interpreting. In-person interpreters will frequently remember a message that caused them some difficulty, and can take a few moments afterward to research how they might have interpreted it better.
While many of us think that we know how to look something up on the web, there is always more to learn. This lesson will introduce several "tips and tricks" that can help you maximize the effectiveness of your internet research to help solve tricky interpreting problems. |

| Description: | Join this webinar to discover how to make your translation and interpreting services more inclusive for clients with disabilities, opening up new opportunities and impact.
In your role as a translator or interpreter, you proudly help the world communicate by building linguistic bridges. Would you be surprised if I told you that most of usunintentionallyintroduce barriers in that building process? These barriers prevent a large segment of your clients from understanding, engaging, and consuming your work. I’m referring to individuals with disabilities and the barriers in the digital space.
You may be thinking, “I don't know anyone with disabilities!” According to the World Health Organization, 16% of the world’s population, or one in six global citizens, has a condition that limits mobility, communication, and work skills. 27% of Americans are affected by at least one disability that causes them to struggle in the digital world. These individuals are your clients and they would like to consume the content you are creating. Let's learn simple techniques that will make your translation and interpreting accessible to everyone.

| Description: | Advocacy is a legitimate skill interpreters can use to facilitate communication. It is a tenant of the National Code of Ethics for Healthcare Interpreters which states: “When the patient’s health, well-being, or dignity is at risk, the interpreter may be justified in acting as an advocate.”
In order to effectively advocate, interpreters must understand cultural contexts in which they work, and be able to assess risks to patient health, well-being and dignity including micro-aggressions, inexperience with or ignorance of health care systems and structural racism. This participatory course dives into:
• cultural influences on communication;
• the impact of racism within the US medical cultural;
• what is advocacy; and
• how to use leverage advocacy as a tool to facilitate communication.
Participants will critically consider case scenarios for practice in recognizing potential risks to patient safety, well-being and dignity, and identifying strategies for advocacy in a support environment. |

| Description: | Whether you are looking to take CCHI ETOE™ (English-to-English) interpreting exam or simply would like to flex your interpreting muscles, this course is for you! It is highly interactive, with many practice activities, so be ready to get a mental workout!
The ability to paraphrase is essential for interpreters to master to be able to successfully convey a message in its entirety, including the intended meaning and all its nuances. Indeed, when taking the ETOE™ (English-to-English) interpreting exam, test takers need to demonstrate the ability to comprehend an oral message in English and then accurately restate it in their own words – without changing the message, and adding or omitting information.
This presentation will introduce you to the concrete sub-skills involved in paraphrasing and you will have an opportunity to engage in guided practice of the sub-skills – such as coming up with synonyms, or changing the sentence structure, and see sample answers. |

| Description: | Now, more than ever, interpreters are in high demand to work in med-legal assignments. Most of these involve worker’s compensation cases due to accidents, injuries and health related issues in worksites. Injury cases tend to be, by far, the most popular and are the ones that at some point will definitely end up with a QME (Qualified Medical Evaluator), AME (Agreed Medical Evaluator), or with some other type of state med-legal neutral doctor. Therefore, interpreters must possess a deep knowledge of the terminology related to the field of Orthopedics. In this three-hour webinar, we will see terminology related to the field of orthopedics. The instructor will cover some initial introductory definitions, the most common orthopedic procedures, and the most important anatomical terms related to musculoskeletal functions, injuries, and diseases. |

| Description: | Improving Clinical Outcomes for Patients and Enhancing Our Perceived Value as Interpreters: This workshop explores practices in our field that inhibit sophisticated decision-making by the interpreter. The presenter will encourage interpreters to look at gaps in current practice, dogmatic thinking, and the "That's not ethical!” argument (i.e. rigid thinking by some interpreters regarding our code of ethics.) The presenter will encourage discussion regarding being purely a “message converter” (e.g. a verbal version of Google Translate) versus practitioner-style interpreting (Robyn Dean & Robert Pollard). The trainer will share strategies such as educational scripting, teach-back, visual aids, addressing sophisticated language and jargon barriers, and interpreter "visibility” to enhance comprehension, trust, and the clinical outcome. The presenter will argue that these fit within our code of ethics and are well- aligned with clinical goals. The presenter will explore how these strategies can enhance patient outcomes and have the potential to increase the value that others associate with our work. She will argue that it is this prospect of becoming more "visible", more relatable, and more integrated into the medical team’s goal for the patient that could be key factors in how vital our work is perceived to be in years to come. |

| Description: | As a translator or interpreter, you are only as good as the resources you have and, nowadays, the internet is everyone’s go-to resource for finding medical information
Unfortunately, the internet is a “double-edged sword” because some information can look reliable but end up not being so. Also, if you do not know where to look, the process of looking for resources can be quite overwhelming.
During this one-hour webinar I will share my favorite reliable resources with you to help save you time and avoid frustration. And you will leave with trustworthy resources you can turn to each time you need to do online research. |

| Description: | Healthcare interpreters are present during a broad range of interactions that require a mix of message transfer, ethics and protocol skills to manage. Their primary role is to apply their skills to support direct communication and the communicative autonomy of speakers, keeping their own biases and perspectives out of the conversation. Through discussions of actual cases, interpreters will reflect about situations that posed ethics related challenges, and utilize strategies to operationalize ethical interventions when facing a barrier to communication. Through critical thinking, ethical decision-making and intervention scripts, interpreters will gain concrete tools to support the speaker's ability to be in control of their own communication. Attendees will participate in a discussion led by moderators and will reflect on possible approaches that may be effective in future similar situations. |

| Description: | Spanish has evolved over hundreds of years across many continents. Hence, many variations and “dialects” of the Spanish language have emerged and are in use across the globe. Although there is such a thing as a “standardize” version of the language (sometimes called Standard, Universal, Neutral, Global, etc.), this version uses more generic terminology and avoids the use of colloquial and more informal phrases that vary from country to country. |

There are numerous learning and professional development opportunities for both interpreters and translators – from webinars to self-paced online courses. This webinar will suggest to the participants ideas for another way of learning– using books, podcasts, and TV shows to enhance their knowledge of medical terminology and medicine in general. While TV shows like Grey’s Anatomy may be medically inaccurate, a single scene may contain dozens of medical terms, presented in context, and tied to dramatic plotlines. Podcasts related to medical topics, aimed at the public, are great sources of information presented in an entertaining manner. Books written by doctors or medical journalists contain medical knowledge and terminology in the context of case stories, which are likely to be more memorable than dry academic texts. Participants will learn how to effectively use unconventional resources to learn medical terminology – and share their favorite resources with peers! |

| Description: | Prenatal care is a crucial period in which positive effects can be generated for the health of women, families and the entire community. Many women access the healthcare system when they learn of their pregnancy, a time when the desire to make significant changes in overall health arises. This desire to improve family health is very strong during pregnancy. Prenatal care offers the opportunity to get to know our patients in depth and sometimes allows us to detect health problems that generate fear and stress, both in women and their families. It is essential to sensitively address the risks, complications, and difficulties during this process to keep patients involved in their care. The birth of a baby is one of the most special moments for everyone, but many have no previous experience and some have stayed away from the process due to cultural aspects related to social forces, such as machismo, paternalism and colonialism. As a result, many women have had traumatic experiences during their previous pregnancies and births, and often their first experiences in U.S. hospitals are with us. At the time of delivery, we have the opportunity to offer many families experiences that can heal past wounds caused by negative experiences in previous births. We can provide a beautiful, healing, and respectful experience that opens doors to mental health and improves family relationships, helping to prevent the repetition of cycles of violence and abuse learned in families of origin. In the end, our goal is to build a healthier community, with more respectful relationships and children who grow up in healthy homes, both physically and emotionally. When families receiving this care need an interpreter, these delicate moments can present barriers that hinder not only the understanding of delicate situations and conditions, but can also affect the health of the baby, the mother and the family. It is crucial that the interpreter feels comfortable in these situations and conversations, so that the family feels safe and confident in their health team and in the hospital system they go to for delivery.

Panelists Kimberly Williams, Director of the Houston Area Human Trafficking Healthcare Consortium and the PATH Collaborative, Kathy Givens, prominent advocate and Co-Founder of Twelve 11 Partners, and Sara Breuer, Collaboration Manager at United Against Human Trafficking, bring their expertise to bear with straightforward, practical counsel drawn from many years of experience fighting the trade and supporting survivors.
Moderated by Ludmila Golovine, member of the Texas Human Trafficking Prevention Taskforce, the panel will discuss how trafficking occurs, clear up misconceptions about the signs of human trafficking, investigate what various frontline professionals can do when faced with it on the job, and identify resources that are available for victims, survivors and those who work with them.

| Description: | Cancer care can be a complex process involving multidisciplinary teams and a variety of diagnostic procedures and treatment options. When interpreting in cancer care, interpreters will encounter highly specialized vocabulary, explanations of complex concepts and procedures, and difficult-to-pronounce medications. Communication between a cancer care team and an LEP patient may be further complicated by cultural differences and by expectations of what happens when a patient is diagnosed. Interpreters must be aware of the language they may encounter in cancer care appointments and the challenges specific to interpreting in oncology settings.
By completing this course, interpreters will gain an understanding of cancer as a group of diseases, including its symptomatology and typology. Interpreters will also improve their understanding of diagnostic methods, common treatments, and their side effects, interpreting challenges common to cancer care as well as strategies for overcoming these challenges. In addition, participants will take part in practice exercises which will allow them to practice and incorporate their new knowledge.
The course is based on the National Cancer Institute and American Cancer Society websites as well as other research sources cited in the Reference section, as well as the trainer's interpreting experience. Cindy Roat and medical providers at the Seattle Cancer Care Alliance peer-reviewed the materials.

| Description: | Observant interpreters and translators have undoubtedly noticed the unique choice of words that pain and palliative care providers use in their day to day interactions with families and patients facing adverse diagnoses. While phrases such as "We want to make sure that we honor your child as we make medical decisions..." may sound clear and compassionate to a provider, they throw a curve ball for interpreters and families alike. How can interpreters empower themselves to clarify these messages and to become an integral partner of the pain and palliative care team? Join us to learn about the communication practices unique to palliative and hospice care, solutions to tackle the challenges these practices pose, and participate in a rich conversation with other interpreters, translators, and pain and palliative care provider Dr. Kris Catrine. |

| Description: | Imaging tests are a way healthcare providers can see what is going on inside your body. These tests send forms of energy (x-rays, sound waves, radioactive particles, or magnetic fields) through your body and then, changes in energy patterns made by body tissues create an image or picture. These pictures can show normal body structures and functions as well as abnormal ones caused by different diseases.
During this *2-hour recorded webinar*, attendees will become familiar with X-rays, Computer tomography (CT) scans, fluoroscopy, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scans, ultrasound, and mammogram. We will focus on their mechanism, indications, and risks and benefits.
This class is taught in English. |

| Description: | As the pandemic pushed each and every one of us into isolation, it also facilitated an increased prominence of digital communication and remote work. These abrupt changes stressed us mentally, emotionally, and spiritually, and, undoubtedly, changed many aspects of how we engage with life. Many of these changes are here to stay post-COVID.
Please join us on July 29th to explore the perils but also the pearls, of living online, including how these changes may have affected us on both cellular (physical) and subconscious (emotional) levels. Ludmila Golovine, CEO of MasterWord Services, will host a discussion with Dr. Alejandro Chaoul, the Huffington Foundation Endowed Director and Founder of The Jung Center’s Mind Body Spirit Institute, Dr. Eve Ekman, one of the World’s leading contemplative social scientists and creator of the Atlas of Emotions at the request of the Dalai Lama, and Dr. Elissa Epel, a psychology researcher and New York times best selling author, who with her colleague (Dr. Elizabeth Blackburn, nobel laureate) discovered telomerase and telomeres’ role in the aging process and ways to protect telomeres, slow disease and improve life.
These amazing speakers will discuss ways to mitigate the effects of the stressors of the digital world and teach us how to be more resilient and flourish as we move forward. |

| Description: | Whether you are preparing for an exam or simply want to keep your skills up, a defined strategy for practice sessions is the key to productive interpreting practice. Even if you work as a full-time interpreter, there is nothing like the deep reflection and analysis of your performance in a practice session to help you hone your craft. A solid interpreting skill improvement strategy includes honest self-assessment and setting specific goals for every practice session that go beyond “take good notes,” “master all technical vocabulary,” or “interpret everything perfectly.” This session will cover goal-setting, resources for practice material, honing your language and vocabulary skills in your downtime, giving and receiving feedback, and tips for solo and group practice. Participants will try their hand at practical exercises that help hone an interpreter’s skill with a special focus on paraphrasing, a valuable exercise that builds the mental agility necessary for interpretation. This workshop is suitable for experienced interpreters looking to get unstuck and achieve a long-desired goal of passing a specific exam, beginners who feel overwhelmed with the daunting task of learning this craft, and anyone in between! |

| Description: | Even when faced with identical ethical dilemmas or scenarios, interpreters’ ethical decision-making choices may vary significantly. Several factors, including work experience, personality traits, and ethical knowledge, may contribute to this. Kohlberg’s Theory of Moral Development is one way to explain this variety of ethical choices. According to this theory, moral reasoning progresses from childhood to adulthood through a series of increasingly complex levels and stages. This theory can offer a framework for describing the rationale behind interpreters' decisions and evaluating the depth of our own ethical reasoning.
During this webinar, we will use Kohlberg's Theory of Moral Development in conjunction with medical interpreters’ Codes of Ethics & Standards of Practice to help interpreters gain a better understanding of why medical interpreters make ethical decisions, as well as develop the cognitive flexibility to practice ethical decision-making and solve common ethical dilemmas from a variety of moral perspectives.
The webinar is delivered live on Zoom or can be watched as a recording. The live sessions are expected to take place every 2 months. Students will need to spend 4 hours
watching/attending the presentation and participating in the practice activities. In order to obtain a certificate of completion, the student must complete and pass a quiz with a grade of at least 70%.

The urge to help is natural for interpreters, drawn to the profession by a desire to facilitate communication among people. By recognizing and acknowledging this urge and the motivations behind it, as well as the crucial reasons why advocacy falls outside the purview of our profession, we equip ourselves with the tools necessary to remain true to our mandate of neutrality and impartiality. The presenters will emphasize the importance of interpreter neutrality and provide practical tips to avoid and resist the temptation to venture outside the scope of interpretation.

| Description: | The Interpretive Services department is going to be providing a monthly terminology course for its team. During each month, we are going to focus on a medical specialty. There will be readings, videos, games, and quizzes for the interpreters to immerse themselves in that particular specialty. A draft glossary will be provided at the beginning of each month. Participants will have to add/ remove/ comment on the glossary as they complete their work. Ultimately, the department will take all those suggestions to create a final glossary that will be printed out for our interpreters and for our clinics. Participants will be able to work at their own pace. It is expected that they will need about 5 hours of work per month to complete the requirements. This project is going to be spread in 3 years. We are currently requesting CEU approval for 6months (5hours/ CEU per month, so 30 hours/ CEU). |

| Description: | Protocols for healthcare interpreting were originally written with the idea that the interpreter would be present in the room with the provider or medical team and the patient or patient and family. However, interpreting remotely via telephone and video has become a greater part of the job, if not the entire job, for many healthcare interpreters. Providing interpreter services from a distance presents unique challenges. The goal of this session is to review interpreting protocols that have been adapted from in-person settings to working remotely, including what interpreters do at the beginning, during, and at the close of an encounter and to consider and propose better practices for supporting communication between patients and providers.

| Description: | Did you know that mental health providers analyze patient language to reach a diagnosis? For example, disorganized speech may be an indicator of psychosis. If an interpreter cleans up disorganized speech, they are editing out crucial data that is needed to reach an accurate diagnosis. On December 4th, we will discuss why interpreters cannot simply relay what a mental health patient says. To provide a truly accurate interpretation, professionals must also relay how it is said. In one hour, deepen your understanding of how mental health providers extract data from their patient’s speech, and how you can be a more effective interpreter. |

| Description: | Interpreters often find themselves conflicted when making ethical decisions during interpreting encounters. Either they find it difficult to find guidance on how to proceed or feel like they are “breaking the rules” when they engage in actions not clearly illustrated in their code of ethics or standards of practice. This course will prepare interpreters to feel more confident when making ethical decisions. The first portion of the webinar will explore the main elements of a code of ethics and their purpose. The presenter will go over core values and guiding principles, which are the main components of the code of ethics. The audience will learn the difference between a code of conduct and a code of ethics. Participants will also learn how standards of practice supplement a code of ethics. In the second portion of the webinar, attendees will learn about critical thinking and how to develop this vital skill. The presenter will provide specific exercises interpreters can use to develop their critical thinking skills outside the interpreting encounter. Additionally, attendees will learn how to apply critical thinking skills to make value-based decisions in the interpreting encounter. The presentation also includes scenarios that will illustrate essential concepts to allow students to use some skills they will learn during the webinar. |

| Description: | Language justice is defined as “an evolving framework based on the notion of respecting every individual’s fundamental language rights—to be able to communicate, understand, and be understood in the language in which they prefer and feel most articulate and powerful. Rejecting the notion of the supremacy of one language, it recognizes that language can be a tool of oppression, and as well as an important part of exercising autonomy and of advancing racial and social justice.” (Payton et al., 2020)
There are many groups who play a role in promoting language justice in the health care setting. How do we as interpreters work together with other members of our community, from patients to providers to legislators, who are also interested in language justice? How can we determine which strategies are most effective and where to make adjustments? In this course the instructor will share experiences with researching language justice and facilitate a conversation about future directions of research in the years to come. |

| Description: | While everyone is preparing and talking about the advent of Artificial Intelligence and its impact on the interpreting industry, interpreters cannot but worry and fear for their livelihood. In addition, the work of an interpreter requires accuracy, tenacity, and emotional strength. Like with anyone working in medical, community and court settings, interpreters will face work-related stress. This presentation sheds light on the emotional toll that interpreters face every day. This presentation provides the audience with practical coping mechanisms tailored specifically for interpreters working in high stress environments. Ultimately, this presentation aims to foster resilience in the face of change and empower interpreters with tools to manage vicarious trauma and stress. |

| Description: | Professionals in the "helping professions" find themselves on the front lines of support during crises at individual, community, national, and international levels. These dedicated individuals encompass a diverse range of roles, including first responders, therapists, social workers, healthcare providers, educators, religious leaders, and anyone else who offers assistance during or after traumatic events. Working in such roles inherently exposes these helpers to traumatic situations. They must listen, witness, and often directly experience trauma alongside those they aid. This not only places them in a position of immense importance for those in need but also increases their own vulnerability to the effects of the trauma they encounter. This webinar aims to explore the impact of trauma on helpers, posing essential questions such as: What occurs when a helper experiences primary or secondary trauma? How does a helper's own traumatic experiences affect their ability to offer aid, and what are the implications for the individuals they assist? How does a helper handle their own unresolved trauma when triggered during the act of helping? Additionally, the webinar will investigate strategies to mitigate the effects of trauma exposure, drawing from fields like Interpersonal Neurobiology and Polyvagal Theory, ultimately enabling helpers to continue thriving in their crucial roles. |

| Description: | We are always communicating, even when we are not speaking. How we dress, how we stand, our gestures, facial expressions, our tone of voice all speak for us. Nonverbal communication can emphasize or contradict what we are saying, or it can replace speech. This class brings awareness to nonverbal communication and how it affects our interpreting. In conversations, nonverbal communication is used to manage the flow through nonverbal cues. Interpreters who are able to read nonverbal communication can deliver a more comprehensive message. Interpreters should also be aware of their own nonverbal communication so as not to distract from the interpreting encounter. The class provides an overview of nonverbal communication and provides techniques to improve self-awareness of nonverbal communication. |

When we spend time thinking of how to say something, we get distracted from what we’re actually there to do: Interpret. In this webinar, ALTA will provide you with simple, professional scripts for complex situations, so that you can get back to interpreting as soon as possible. Learn how to best navigate unexpected scenarios, while maintaining your primary role. |

| Description: | The medical and legal systems are specialized cultures with their technical language, procedures, and sometimes mystifying ways of making decisions. Both the courts and the hospitals can be, at times, unfamiliar, irritating, and confusing even to the average person growing up in this culture.
The unique demands these settings make upon interpreters have led to procedures for curricula of specialized certification for medical and legal interpreters. But sometimes, the medical and legal arenas overlap, particularly in mental health and substance abuse.
The purpose of this session is to help to clarify some of these medical-legal situations, particularly the involuntary commitment of people with alcohol and drug programs to detox and rehab facilities and the involuntary commitment of mentally ill individuals to psychiatric hospitals. Even if interpreters do not always internally agree with the decisions made in these forums, it is essential to understand and appreciate the unique logic of the medical and legal systems and their intersection. In the medical-legal arena, the government's power is used to enforce decisions that, at times, the patients disagree with and, at times, the family disagrees with. Patients may be angry with the family's ability to control them through the state's power. And similarly, families can sometimes be frustrated about the limits to which the state will intervene to promote what the family sees as their loved one's well-being. Interpreting in these situations involves the usual technical challenges and the ability to deal with one's own emotions and not be vicariously triggered by the families and patients upsets.

| Description: | This class has been created to address the skill gap created in the healthcare setting. The simultaneous mode of interpreting can be a very useful skill for medical interpreters, but very little attention is paid to it because so much of the focus is placed on consecutive interpreting being that it is the primary mode of interpretation in the healthcare setting. To this end, revisiting, reviewing, and deliberately practicing the necessary skills to be effective simultaneous interpreters is pivotal to successfully interpreted encounters. |

| Description: | This class has been created to address the skill gap created in the healthcare setting. The simultaneous mode of interpreting can be a very useful skill for medical interpreters, but very little attention is paid to it because so much of the focus is placed on consecutive interpreting being that it is the primary mode of interpretation in the healthcare setting. To this end, revisiting, reviewing, and deliberately practicing the necessary skills to be effective simultaneous interpreters is pivotal to successfully interpreted encounters. |

| Description: | During the weekly online synchronous meetings, students will practice various skill-building exercises that underpin quality simultaneous interpreting output, as well as practice simultaneous interpreting—all in a safe space, with instructor and peer feedback. Half of the 60-minute session will be dedicated to skill-building drills, and half will be interpreting practice using Zoom. The sessions are intended for synchronous participation, and will take place weekly at 7pm Eastern on Wednesdays, starting on September 11, 2024, for 12 sessions (3 months). The initial part of the session will be recorded so that if you miss a session you can practice with a partner at a different time that week. Materials for practice will also be sent for all who are participating.
The speeches we use for this will depend on the group’s interest – once you sign up for the guided practice component of the course we will reach out to find out what type of setting you work in and/or are interested in applying your simultaneous practice. For example, if you work as an interpreter in a school setting, we will provide videos/audios related to common topics that come up in that setting. The settings we will cover are healthcare, education, legal, and social work/mental health. We are open to adding more settings if there are enough students who wish to practice in any given setting. All videos/audios provided will be in English, for practice into your non-English language.
Below is a draft of the outline of the sessions, and it’s subject to change:
Session Date Topic/Skill
1 9/11/24 Introduction to deliberate practice principles; baseline performance (speech 1); simple shadowing
2 9/18/24 Simple shadowing + shadowing with increased decalage; speech 2

| Description: | Simultaneous interpreting in healthcare can be an effective practice choice for language-discordant families and prolonged teaching sessions.
That being said, healthcare interpreters are often taught, or they extrapolate from their training, that simultaneous interpretation (simul) is exclusivley used in encounters where there is a prolonged emotional utterance which compromises the interpreter’s performance. In other words, when the interpreter is not given enough pauses to render an accurate consecutive interpretation (consec) during dialogue, they are then provoked into spontaneously changing their practice from consec to simul. The presenter will argue in favor of re-evaluating our field’s de facto position on this and encourage the use of simul in other dynamics, as well. She will argue that simul can be an effective practice when the interpreter has the opportunity to be more deliberate in planning for it. The presenter will explore when and why we might choose to employ simul (and/or "simulsecutive," a combination of simul and consec) and how to negotiate its use with the other parties. She will explore its potential in certain settings to result in effective interpreter performance and accuracy, especially with language-discordant families (e.g., English-speaking patient and LEP caregiver) and prolonged unilateral teaching sessions (CPR, extensive home care teaching, etc.) The presenter will ultimately share the limitations of short-term memory in complex consec and how to improve both consec and simul performance by understanding the role that long term memory plays with retention and recall. |

| Description: | ChatGPT has taken the world by storm and newspapers are full of predictions that interpreters will lose their jobs in the near future. But what does machine interpreting actually mean for interpreters? Will it put us out of work or will it create work? Will it turn us all into interpreting post-editors or is there a future where our work is still as creative as it is now?
Based on the book, Interpreters vs Machines: Can Interpreters Survive in an AI-Dominated World? and with updates to reflect recent changes, this webinar will cover many possible futures for human interpreting and what it might take for them to become true. It will also delve into how the threat and opportunities of machine interpreting have revealed some uncomfortable truths about how we talk about, market, and understand our own work and the changes we will need to make to survive in any future where machine interpreting exists. |

| Description: | Medical interpreters are required to interpret everything that is said during a medical encounter. To accomplish this, interpreters need to manage the flow of conversation efficiently. They also need to discern when it is appropriate to mediate and when to stay in their interpreting role. Ideally, healthcare interpreters should mediate only when necessary and do so briefly. However, mediation is not an easy skill to master.
Over time, professional medical interpreters with an advanced skill set can perform a strategic mediation confidently and skillfully. They follow criteria that helps them know if a strategic mediation is necessary. When they do need to mediate, they keep the mediation brief and resume interpreting immediately. Performing a strategic mediation efficiently preserves the communicative autonomy of each party in the session.
Developing advanced strategic mediation skills will improve the quality of your interpretation. You will be able to mediate without interrupting the speaker’s train of thought and without drawing attention to yourself. You will be able to ask for what you need to do your job succinctly, without apologizing for it. Strategic mediation is a skill you can use during every encounter. Enhancing this skillset will make a significant difference in each interpreting assignment. |

| Description: | Even the most experienced health care interpreters face situations that challenge their ethics. In certain situations, different ethical principles may seem to indicate contradictory responses or appear to be in conflict with customer service protocols or even basic human empathy. In this session, we will review interpreter codes of ethics and standards of practice, as well as guidelines for ethical decision making. We will analyze different possible outcomes of real-life ethical dilemmas that interpreters have faced and engage in script development exercises to help navigate and resolve these situations when they arise with patients and providers. |

| Description: | We learn in interpreter training to accurately represent what is said in an encounter, no matter what. We know that when a patient uses ugly language, we should interpret using that same language. But what actually happens when we encounter profanity in a professional setting? On May 10th, we’ll dive into why patients use groserías and discuss strategies for interpreting profanity with accuracy and professionalism. |

| Description: | Having a reliable note-taking system is key to interpreting effectively
in the consecutive mode. That said, what works for one person may not make sense to
another. Because note-taking is as individual as handwriting, it is best for interpreters to
work on creating their own system of notes that combines basic elements: letters, symbols
and spacing. This session will be offered in English for speakers of any language. |

| Description: | No matter how we deliver our services, interpreters are summoned to bridge the language, knowledge and cultural barriers that exist between LEPs, providers and, at times, the LEPs family. At times, in the course of our work, we are faced with the dire situation of interpreting while CPR is being administered or when the topic of life sustaining medical treatment is being had. Few interpreters are required to have CPR training despite working in the hospital setting and practically zero independent contractors have ever taken a CPR class. Court interpreters find themselves interpreting in medical malpractice suits where the rescue effort is scrutinized. This class intends to eliminate any gaps of practical knowledge on the subject of CPR, its algorithms (adult, child, and infant), protocols, medications, and the events that follow. |

| Description: | As every experienced interpreter knows, there is no way to predict how an interpreting encounter will play out. Community and Medical Interpreters face, on any given day, an incredible variety of unexpected and, often, highly nuanced, complex situations. So how should an interpreter prepare for all the situations they will encounter? The Interpreter’s Toolkit will equip community and medical interpreters with proven methods of strengthening their skills. Participants will learn about different reflective practice models and how they can be used in an interpreting encounter to clarify ethical decisions and, ultimately, improve session management. The course will also examine how critical thinking affects ethical and session management decisions. Lastly, we will spend considerable time showing students how reflective practice tools can increase effectiveness when self-evaluating and when providing peer feedback.

| Description: | BIDMC INTERPRETER ETHICS ROUNDS is a forum for BIDMC per diem and staff interpreters, unless otherwise specified. This workshop is one of a Series of 6 lunch-time, 1-hour workshops presented throughout the calendar year. It is a forum for interpreters who have found themselves in ethically challenging situations to share the story with colleagues. Attendees participate in a discussion led by a staff moderator/discussant/presenter and benefit from learning relevant information and reflecting on various possible approaches that may be effective for them to take if they find themselves in similar situations. Alternatively, a guest presenter will present a topic with links to interpreter Ethics and Standards of Practice. A recording of the webinar may be posted for BIDMC interpreters who could not attend in person.
The interpreter is called to interpret remotely for a telehealth visit. Since the adult patient has cognitive impairment, the patient’s adult relative offers to speak on the patient’s behalf. However, when the doctor asks if the patient agrees to continue the telehealth visit, the patient answers “No”, and further communication between the provider and the patient’s relative is tense and disorganized. Simultaneous interpretation is not possible due to technology limitations. During the conversation, the provider and the patient’s relative disagree on the dose of medication given to the patient, and both the interpreter and the provider become concerned the patient may be getting the wrong dose of the medication, so the provider is hesitant to end the conversation. Is there a space for an interpreter to step in and clarify if the relative has a right to talk on the patient’s behalf? How can the interpreter manage the conversation if the clinician thinks it cannot continue?
During the case presentation, we will discuss the dilemmas in decision-making in patients with cognitive impairment and reflect on the case conclusion. Additionally, we will review various strategies for the interpreter during this call, depending on the purpose of the telehealth visit and whether the interpreter is familiar with the family’s situation. We will also discuss potential helpful tips for the interpreter during the conversation with a legally adult patient with cognitive impairment. |

| Description: | In order to be effective interpreters, we must strive to learn a little about all conditions and diseases. We must also keep abreast of detailed area terminology. In this collaborative workshop, we will
• Identify the most common terminology related to the spleen
• Discuss common conditions (pathologies) and diagnostics tools
• Go over medications commonly prescribed
• Collaborate with participants in order to dissect a small list of medical terms into their corresponding parts (root, prefix, suffix) so that we are better prepared when interpreting. |

| Description: | Accuracy in interpretation is one of the key measures of a professional interpreter. But what does accuracy entail? How should we handle figurative language like idioms? What about double negatives, false starts, and expletives? How do we deal with messages that can only be understood in certain cultural contexts? What can we do when we suspect a consumer is not understanding? To what degree can we let nonverbal cues influence our interpretation? How can we gracefully correct substantive errors, both our own and those of a colleague we might be working with? |

| Description: | BIDMC INTERPRETER ETHICS ROUNDS is a forum for BIDMC per diem and staff interpreters, unless otherwise specified. This workshop is one of a Series of 6 lunch-time, 1-hour workshops presented throughout the calendar year. It is a forum for interpreters who have found themselves in ethically challenging situations to share the story with colleagues. Attendees participate in a discussion led by a staff moderator/discussant/presenter and benefit from learning relevant information and reflecting on various possible approaches that may be effective for them to take if they find themselves in similar situations. Alternatively, a guest presenter will present a topic with links to interpreter Ethics and Standards of Practice. A recording of the webinar may be posted for BIDMC interpreters who could not attend in person.
IMIA/MMIA Medical Interpreting Standards of Practice say an indicator of mastery is when the interpreter monitors their own personal agenda and needs and is aware of transference and countertransference issues, while an indicator of lack of mastery is if the interpreter is unaware of transference and countertransference issues (Duty C-5: Ethical Behavior). However, do interpreters truly grasp these concepts? How do they monitor and manage transference and countertransference during interactions with patients?
Jessica Goldhirsch, LICSW, MSW, MPH, will provide an overview of the concepts of transference and countertransference. Together, Jessica and Jane Kontrimas, CoreCHI™, will share a story from Jane's interpreter practice and analyze it through the lens of transference and countertransference. We will explore the impact of these phenomena on the interpreting process in medical settings. Other participants will recall cases from their own practices, allowing us to discuss the potential presence of transference or countertransference. Additionally, we will emphasize the importance of regularly monitoring and cultivating self-awareness to recognize whether transference or countertransference might affect professional performance. |

| Description: | This workshop, delivered online over two half-days, is aimed at Spanish-speaking and French-speaking community interpreters who are looking to develop foundational translation skills and add translation to the range of services they currently offer. It will help them navigate typical translation requests that they encounter in their workplace or as freelancers. Participants in this hands-on program will explore the 10 steps in the translation process, apply essential translation principles and strategies to short sample materials used in community settings, learn how to identify low-risk materials that are safer for community translators to translate, assess the most common risks and legal implications of machine translation, learn about and apply fundamentals of self-revision, identify reliable online translation resources, and build documentation skills. They will apply fundamental techniques to the translation and revision of documents commonly used in community services, using tools designed for professional translators. The training includes many practical, skill-based activities done in small groups, during which participants will translate from English into Spanish or from English into French, and edit existing translations done from English into Spanish or French, based on their respective target language combinations. Participants will take home professionally designed reference materials, checklists and guidelines for further exploration.

| Description: | Trauma-informed interpreting is an approach that recognizes the profound impact of trauma on individuals and ensures that interpretation services are delivered with sensitivity, respect, and awareness of trauma-related triggers. It involves understanding how trauma affects communication, being mindful of the interpreter’s role in fostering a safe and supportive environment and avoiding actions that could unintentionally retraumatize a person.
It is equally important to recognize that interpreting in high-stress, trauma-laden encounters can also take a toll on interpreters themselves. Constant exposure to emotionally charged situations—such as those in healthcare, legal, and social service settings—can lead to vicarious trauma, compassion fatigue, and burnout. In this program, interpreters will learn about the psychological and emotional impact of their work and explore strategies to safeguard their well-being while remaining effective communicators.
For interpreters, learning about trauma-informed practices before encountering such situations is essential, as it prepares them to handle interactions with empathy, professionalism, and cultural awareness. Proper training helps interpreters recognize signs of distress, adapt their approach to maintain trust, and collaborate effectively with professionals in fields like healthcare, legal services, and social work. By adopting a trauma-informed mindset, interpreters enhance the quality of communication for trauma survivors while also ensuring their own emotional and mental resilience. This dual awareness—of both the client’s trauma and the interpreter’s well-being—contributes to a more sustainable, compassionate, and effective support system for all involved. |

Sight translation will be covered in a lesson later in the course. In this lesson you will learn how to precisely render the message into the target language (the language that you interpret into) after the speaker or signer pauses. For simultaneous interpreting, you will learn how to render the message while the speaker or signer is still communicating—with a slight lag. You will learn about consecutive and simultaneous interpreting delivered remotely and about the similarities and differences with face-to-face interpreting. |

| Description: | This lesson demonstrates how to adapt essential interpreting protocols to remote interpreting. This is our third lesson in a series of three lessons on skills and protocols. In the interpreting profession, a protocol is an accepted or established way of doing things that helps the interpreters manage their role in the session. And protocols help you stay within your role and focus primarily on interpreting.
Course description:
Protocols are the procedures and best practices that help you manage a successful session. If you’ve performed face-to-face interpreting, you’re familiar with basic protocols, such as performing a professional introduction, positioning yourself effectively, intervening to manage the flow of communication and so on.
The questions this lesson addresses:
How do protocols change when you interpret remotely?
How do you apply them effectively in a remote (OPI or VRI) setting?
In this lesson you’ll learn the details of how to adapt protocols from face-to-face interpreting to remote interpreting. You will also learn a few other protocols that apply only to remote interpreting.
While the primary focus of this lesson is over-the-phone interpreting and video remote interpreting (OPI and VRI) some of the protocols discussed in this lesson can also apply to remote simultaneous interpreting (RSI). |

| Description: | Relay interpreting, just like relay racing, has been around for centuries, but has not always been considered a professional modality except for conference interpreting. This session will describe the various components of relay interpreting in the communication network, the skills needed to become proficient in this mode of interpreting, and how to train budding interpreters to overcome the challenges of interpreting in educational environments intersecting with medical and legal terminology, where accuracy and cultural sensitivity are critical for ensuring safety and effective communication.
The session will emphasize the interpreter's role in advocacy and in bridging cultural gaps when necessary; i.e., how to effectively explain cultural differences or practices only when these explanations are essential for facilitating understanding and communication.
Attendees will engage in an exercise with English, Spanish and a Mexican indigenous language. |

| Description: | As interpreters, what are we really taught about consent? Not much! Especially as it is not part of the usual curriculum nor a knowledge requirement for certification. Some healthcare interpreters know of consent and others, through work experience, gain basic knowledge of what to expect when a provider is attempting to ensure informed consent or, as may be the case for court interpreters, when an attorney is questioning if informed consent was indeed obtained. It is the intention of this presentation to expand the attendee’s knowledge on the subject of consent. Why? Because the better we understand consent, the more we realize that there is more than meets the eye. |

| Description: | Language professionals working in healthcare, in court, in jail, with refugees, with child protective services, with victims of abuse, in war zones, or interpreting during an intense encounter most likely experienced high levels of stress, suffered vicarious trauma, or felt vulnerable during the course of their everyday work. Vicarious trauma has been identified as something that affects the performance and wellbeing of interpreters by their experiencing or internalizing someone else’s trauma. Research has confirmed that interpreters are vulnerable to vicarious trauma, burnouts, compassion fatigue, or secondary stress as a result of repeatedly interpreting various traumatic information and experiences. Not only do interpreters witness the trauma, but channeling the trauma can also affect their perceptions of the world around them and result in anxiety, depression, and other serious mental health issues. First formally brought into the light during the 2001 International Association of Conference Interpreters (AIIC), interpretation was subsequently placed in the category of high-stress professions, with consequences ranging from burnout to vicarious trauma, leading to significant performance impediments. The study that triggered this awareness investigated four sets of parameters: psychological, physiological, physical, and performance, as well as the interactions between them. Drawing from over 25 years of experience in a professional services industry, Ludmila “Mila” Golovine, Founder, President & CEO of MasterWord, a Language Services Provider agency, and an interpreter herself, will speak on the subject of vicarious traumatization not from a scientific but from an insider’s point of view - as a representative of a profession that is vulnerable to this type of trauma. Participants will be provided with real-life applications and tools that can help identify and examine triggers leading to vicarious trauma impacting the wellbeing and performance of service professionals, as well as learn practical steps to prevent and/or mitigate the effects of vicarious trauma before, during and after of the patient (client) – provider interactions. The workshop is delivered as a 1-hour, 1.5-hour or 3.5-hour module.

| Description: | Healthcare workers are at higher risk of suffering from vicarious trauma than the average population. Medical interpreters are at an even higher risk due to repeated exposure, channeling the content of traumatic messages, and the lack of support networks to treat job-related mental health problems. Among these are stress, burnout, compassion fatigue, and vicarious trauma. Unlike doctors, nurses, and other healthcare professionals, medical interpreters are not as likely to receive the care they need after interpreting for a traumatic appointment. Furthermore, they may not recognize that symptoms they experience are due to burnout, compassion fatigue, and/or vicarious trauma. Throughout this webinar series, we will define vicarious trauma, compassion fatigue, and burnout. We will provide examples of symptoms that are associated with these conditions and what interpreters can interpreter managers can do to reduce turnover and cultivate a healthier workforce. During Part 1, we will focus on the definitions of vicarious trauma, compassion fatigue, and burnout. During Part 2, we will briefly recap definitions of vicarious trauma, compassion fatigue, and burnout. During Part 3, we will briefly recap definitions of vicarious trauma, compassion fatigue, and burnout. During Part 4, we will briefly recap definitions of vicarious trauma, compassion fatigue, and burnout. We will also summarize the key points from part 2 of the series. Then, we will present information about the different types of responses to vicarious trauma, as explained in the Vicarious Trauma Toolkit Model. Then, we will review the possible responses (positive, neutral, and negative) to vicarious trauma discussed in part 3. Throughout Part 4, we will focus on the physiological changes in the brain that occur during a vicarious trauma experience. |

| Description: | In this highly experiential seminar interpreters will engage with the topic of how our work changes us and how that change changes how we work. Participants will learn about the cumulative impacts of working closely with people who have experienced trauma and oppression. They will be introduced to the concepts of Vicarious Trauma and Compassion Fatigue, Empathy Fatigue, Moral Strain and Resilience. We will explore the range of impacts of unaddressed secondary trauma on professionalism, effectiveness, and personal well-being. This workshop is designed as a uniquely personal opportunity for professional interpreters who work in emotionally charged settings to begin to restore wholeness, compassion and effectiveness after cumulative affective strain also known as secondary trauma.
In all Whole Interpreter workshops, we will shine a light on the connection between self- compassion, self-knowledge, and professional effectiveness. Arlyn will draw from the fields of neuroscience and Positive psychology and will use best practices in professional coaching.
Participants are encouraged to bring an attitude of respect, humor, and compassion to foster a healthy and helpful discussion. |

| Description: | The National Council on Interpreting in Health Care, responding to member input, is reviewing NATIONAL STANDARDS OF PRACTICE for Interpreters in Health Care to see what should be updated: added, omitted, edited, or changed.
There have been significant changes in the healthcare interpreting field in the last two decades. The emergence of new technologies, an increasingly diverse range of cultures and languages, and advancements in medicine have contributed to an evolution in our understanding of the responsibilities of healthcare interpreters.
The Ethics and Standards Work Group is seeking feedback from interpreters, trainers, managers, and other stakeholders to ensure the review and revision process is informed by diverse perspectives. Join interpreters, trainers, and other stakeholders to share your knowledge and experience to ensure the revision process hears your perspectives and opinions.
Before the session participants should re-read
the NATIONAL STANDARDS OF PRACTICE for Interpreters in Health Care,

| Description: | Due to coronavirus, many in person interpreters have not been able to make a living as usual. Thankfully, remote interpreting via phone (OPI) and video (VRI) have become a good option to continue working safely from home. This has required a steep learning curve that some of us still need to overcome. It may seem overwhelming, but have no fear, our webinar of VRI Basics will provide all the information a medical interpreter needs. |

| Presenter: | Dr. Devin Gilbert |
|---|
| Description: | ): In popular culture, Murphy’s law refers to the idea that anything that can go wrong, will go wrong. The world is seldom a tidy, predictable place, and this applies to the world of interpreting as well. Whether working in healthcare, the legal system, the education system, or elsewhere, interpreters are consistently surprised with situations that present them with conundrums of how to respond in a responsible, professional manner. These are ethical dilemmas. This webinar will first present attendees with a review of varying examples of interpreter codes of ethics. Next, attendees will go over examples of ethical dilemmas that force interpreters to put these codes of ethics into practice. The bulk of the time spent in this webinar will review authentic ethical dilemmas from dialogues on Terp (https://terp.app), and attendees, in real time, will mark how they would respond in an interactive survey. After recording how they would respond, attendees will predict the consequences of their decisions and defend their responses using principles from interpreter codes of ethics. |

| Description: | We, medical interpreters and translators, have the responsibility to be familiar with as much medical terminology as possible to do an effective job. However, terminology accounts for less than 5% of the information contained in the communication between doctors and patients. What about the remaining 95%? This is where things can get problematic for the patient if we allow the source of the information (oral or written) to overly influence us. What things do we need to consider to produce an idiomatic interpretation or translation, one based on the meaning and not on the structure of the message? How can we avoid translating word by word? This presentation will touch on several aspects of the source language that are a challenge for us, such as redundancies, false cognates, irregular grammar, and idiomatic expressions. It will also explain what the concept “garbage in-garbage out” is applied to translation and interpretation and why we humans to be better than the machines if we want to keep thriving in this industry. |

| Description: | Deliberate practice can dramatically increase the likelihood an interpreter will achieve true expertise in their chosen field. But what is deliberate practice? In this webinar we will explore this concept. Expertise studies from cognitive science have shown that simply acquiring more and more hours of experience is not enough to achieve true expertise, which is defined as “consistently superior performance” on domain-specific tasks (Ericsson and Charness, 1997; cited in Shreve, 2006, p. 28). Expertise will only increase if individuals practice while meeting several requirements: working on a properly defined task with a certain degree of difficulty, receiving constructive feedback, and repeating and correcting errors (Ericsson, 1996; cited in Shreve, 2006). This presentation will show interpreters and interpreter trainers how to apply these principles to interpreting practice regimens. |

| Presenter: | Carola Lehmacher |

| Description: | ): A code of ethics defines the core values and principles that guide the decision-making process of a profession or group of professionals. Interpreters and translators working in education are in a unique situation. Educational interpreting is the only setting where legal, medical, community, and conference interpreting and translation regularly overlap. For this reason, professionals in this field were in dire need of specialized, up-to-date codes of ethics and standards of practice that addressed their specific requirements. In December 2023, the American Association of Interpreters and Translators in Education (AAITE) published the National Codes of Ethics and Standards of Practice for Interpreters and Translators in Education. Over the course of two years, guided by an 11-step process, the AAITE Ethics and Standards Committee developed these codes using a holistic approach that not only accounted for the existing landscape of published codes of ethics, but also the reality in the field. This presentation will dive into the 11-step process the Ethics and Standards Committee applied in selecting ethical principles and creating standards of practice. We’ll cover the importance of stakeholder validation and the reasons why the recently published codes constitute a critical shift in mindset that affects every interpreter and translator working in education. |

| Description: | Interpreters inevitably experience mental fatigue in healthcare settings. While you may be aware of the risk of diminished accuracy from mental fatigue, you may believe you cannot control your circumstances or environment. Good news: often you can!
This presentation will provide a foundation for interpreters to exercise more agency in the encounter while still adhering to the ethical goal of impartiality. When interpreters become more accountable for their performance, they naturally become more assertive and confident in asking for what they need. This presentation will address ways that we as interpreters can individually and collectively advocate for optimal working conditions. Attendees will receive specific techniques and corresponding scripts for interpreters to employ to better control performance quality. This webinar is a resource for interpreters, trainers, allies, and administrators.

| Description: | Interpreting Kidney Transplants: From Jargon to Clarity is a specialized training webinar designed to equip medical interpreters with the knowledge and skills necessary to navigate medical terminology associated with kidney transplant medicine. Kidney transplantation is a life-saving procedure for individuals with end-stage renal disease, but it involves a multitude of medical terms and processes that can be challenging to interpret accurately. Some challenges include the extensive medicine names that the candidate to transplant should take before and after the transplant, and the length of the interpretation encounters because candidates for transplant will need to meet with a complete team of different specialties before and after transplant. This team of specialties includes meeting with various specialties of the transplant team such as the kidney doctor, the transplant surgeon, the dietitian, and the case manager among others. This webinar will also include the acronyms of agencies in charge of transplants and patient support, the basics of how the patient should navigate these resources, and how the kidney waiting list works. This webinar aims to enhance interpreters' understanding of key concepts and improve their ability to facilitate clear and accurate communication between healthcare providers and patients in kidney transplant healthcare settings. |

| Description: | Vicarious trauma is a hazard of the job for healthcare workers and community service providers. Medical interpreters are not immune to this risk. However, unlike other healthcare and community service providers, interpreters often do not have a built-in support network they can turn to when they are suffering the effects of work-induced vicarious trauma.
Throughout this one-hour workshop, interpreters will learn how vicarious trauma may have affected them. They will also learn how to recognize their default physical and emotional responses to trauma. By recognizing their default trauma responses, interpreters can begin to understand how their bodies and minds are affected by traumatic events.
Furthermore, interpreters will learn how vicarious trauma can lead to positive and productive growth in the future. Interpreters will be able to understand which behaviors and actions are more likely to lead to healing and resilience. Likewise, they will be able to identify which coping behaviors are more likely to lead to addictive and harmful patterns in the long term. |

| Description: | Vicarious trauma is a hazard of the job for healthcare workers and community service providers. Medical interpreters are not immune to this risk. However, unlike other healthcare and community service providers, interpreters often do not have a built-in support network they can turn to when they are suffering the effects of work-induced vicarious trauma. Throughout this workshop, interpreters will learn how vicarious trauma may have affected them. They will also learn how to recognize their default physical and emotional responses to trauma. By recognizing their default trauma responses, interpreters can begin to understand how their bodies and minds are affected by traumatic events.
Furthermore, interpreters will learn how vicarious trauma can lead to positive and productive growth in the future. Interpreters will be able to understand which behaviors and actions are more likely to lead to healing and resilience. Likewise, they will be able to identify which coping behaviors are more likely to lead to addictive and harmful patterns in the long term. |

| Description: | While using a sling after shoulder surgery, I had to translate with only one hand. My surgery was scheduled weeks in advance, so I had time to collect a set of tools that made work in such conditions not only feasible but also reasonably quick. After recovering the use of both hands, some of those tools proved to be a boost to productivity, and more importantly, comfort and ergonomics. Come to meet the solutions I found and choose the hardware and software tools that better suit your personality, level of computer expertise, and work environment. Right- and left-handed and disabled and able-bodied translators are welcome. |

| Description: | This workshop looks at best practices for remote interpreting from home. Increasingly, during the pandemic, many onsite interpreters have made this shift as independent contractors. Telehealth is booming, and despite the easy commute when one works from home, assignments have gotten tougher, as remote interpreting requests have grown in scope and increasingly are scheduled for complex encounters, during this pandemic.
Guidelines for choosing equipment, workstation set-up and connectivity requirements, observing HIPAA, and managing clients during the session are shared. We’ll look at how to: enhance one’s remote persona, and utilize scripts to enforce best practice (pre-session, confidentiality, transparency and managing the flow). Local and Federal law governing call center employment practices will be examined. Links will be shared for materials and exercises to assist interpreters with skills assessment and enhancement. |

| Description: | Interpreters experience mental fatigue in the healthcare setting. While interpreters are aware of the potential for diminished accuracy when we become mentally fatigued, we do not have control over our environment. Rather, we think we don’t. Ms. Henry will provide valid arguments for interpreters to exercise more agency and effectively advocate for optimal working conditions. She will provide specific techniques and corresponding scripts for both interpreters and managers in our efforts to control the quality of our performance. Ms. Henry will argue that the use of scripts has the effect of indirectly persuading others to advocate for our optimal performance, as well. This webinar is a resource for interpreters, trainers, and administrators. |

| Description: | Who's In Control? Applying Interpreter Ethics to Support Patient and Provider Agency
Working interpreters know that bridging communication across languages is far more complex than simply finding the right words. Healthcare interpreters are present during a broad range of interactions that require a mix of message transfer, ethics and protocol skills to manage. Their primary role is to apply their skills to support direct communication and the communicative autonomy of speakers, keeping their own biases and perspectives out of the conversation. This session provides strategies for how interpreters can operationalize ethical interventions when facing a barrier to communication. Through critical thinking, ethical decision-making and intervention scripts, interpreters will gain concrete tools to support the speaker's ability to be in control of their own communication.

| Description: | The purpose is to introduce Medical Interpreters to the Worker's Compensation System in California.
Medical Interpreters need to understand and learn technical vocabulary and concepts related to industrial injuries when they interpret for injured workers who must be evaluated by AME/QME doctors who will rate their disabilities.
Besides being knowledgeable in medical vocabulary, interpreters will need to know workplace safety basics, use of tools and machinery, health and ergonomics, pain and injury terms, types of work accidents, job descriptions, functional capacity programs, and specialized acronyms.
We will review forms used in the WC System, and practice skill-building exercises for the sight translation, consecutive and simultaneous interpretation modes. |

| Description: | Most interpreters, at some point or another, have been hired to work on a Workers’ Compensation (WC) case. For many, WC represents most of their daily freelance work. This is because WC insurance companies frequently authorize interpreting and translation services for injured LEP workers for medical appointments, hearings, meetings with attorneys, mediations, and other approved ancillary services. However, this is a field of legal interpretation where there are still many voids due to the complexity of each state’s WC system, lack of precise equivalences in Spanish, localization problems, etc. In this 3hr webinar, the instructor will help interpreters understand key concepts in WC, navigate the challenging terminology found in Workers’ Compensation cases, and provide sound Spanish equivalences for this challenging terminology. |

| Description: | Health Care Interpreters may interpret appointments which involve Sensory Processing Disorders (SPD), a condition where the brain does not interpret messages from the senses of the body effectively. This class is designed to give a broad overview of SPD in adults and children and explore the areas of the brain that are affected by SPD in conditions such as Autism or ADHD. We will look into symptoms, the physical, psychological, and emotional effects, and the progression if there is no treatment. Interpreters will learn related terminology, best practices regarding environmental arrangements, various supports and treatments that are available. Interpreters will also learn about behaviors that contribute to patients becoming agitated which may create difficulty in interpreting between the affected LEP and provider. We will discuss best practices for interpreting for the LEP who may be affected by this broad category of symptoms. |

| Description: | By attending this workshop, spoken language interpreters will learn about the terminology they will encounter while working with Deaf students and their interpreters. Deaf students may utilize assistive technology in the classroom and spoken language interpreters will learn about each type of technology and its hidden impacts on the children's language preferences and abilities. The technology used may also reflect the student’s cultural identity, and all these implications mentioned will impact the interpreting process. They will explore how spoken language interpreters can collaborate with visual interpreters to create space for a culturally sensitive and linguistically correct interpretation since accuracy and cultural sensitivity are critical for ensuring safety and effective communication.
Spoken interpreters will learn how to co-create this safe space where we can work together to prevent the continuation of linguistic oppression or cultural misunderstandings surrounding students who use a visual language. In this sense, they will discuss some ethical dilemmas, allowing participants to reflect on scenarios where impartiality is crucial, but also emphasizing the interpreter's role in advocacy and in bridging cultural gaps when necessary.
Finally, this session will be an opportunity for participants to create and contribute resources, such as glossaries of medical terminology, ethical decision-making frameworks, and scenario-based practice materials, enriching the collective knowledge and tools available to the group.
By the end of this session, participants will be better equipped to handle the complex demands of working with Deaf students and visual interpreters, ensuring they provide accurate, ethical, and culturally competent services in their professional roles. |

Remote simultaneous interpreting (RSI) emerged in 2020 and has since become integral to the daily routine of freelance conference interpreters worldwide. While akin to traditional conference interpreting, it demands distinct skills and heightened multitasking abilities beyond those typically required in a booth setting. In this webinar, we'll explore common mistakes and pitfalls encountered by interpreters across age and experience levels when operating remotely. Come prepared with questions for the Q&A session as we collaborate to enhance our proficiency in this evolving landscape.
