I recommend this course to anyone serious about medical interpretation."-Salma S. “Thank you for your outstanding work in preparing this course and providing me with tools to feel confident as an interpreter and curious to keep learning.

They have excellent e-learning materials you can complete at your own pace with abundant supporting resources including the textbook, roleplay training material, and glossaries for different languages.”-Boai L.
