This online course for Spanish interpreters was originally presented as a webinar by Johanna Parker, M.A., CHI™-Spanish, CMI, on September 24, 2016. The course is accredited by CEAP/CCHI for 1.75 CE hours in performance-based topics. The fee is $15.
The presenter discusses when it is appropriate to sight translate intake forms, what challenges intake forms present, the value of sight translating these forms to build skills, and how to prepare for this task, using MRI intake forms as an example.
To receive the Badge of Completion (i.e. certificate) you must complete listening to the recording and answer 4 of the 7 Final Quiz questions correctly. The Badge will be emailed to you as soon as these requirements are met (the text of that email itself serves as proof of completion).
The webinar content is courtesy of Johanna Parker, its author and presenter.
