Career Shift? Info Session on How to Become a Professional Interpreter on October 1

If you are interested in becoming an interpreter and you speak English and at least one other language (Mandarin, Cantonese, Spanish, Portuguese, French, Arabic and Russian), please join us at the info session on Monday, October 1, 2012.

The General Interpreting Diploma program at Glendon College, York University is an online based training program. A benefit of this program is that students manage course work at their own convenience and are not required to attend courses and training at Glendon College campus. After finishing the course, which takes one year, a diploma in general interpreting will be issued. As an added benefit students approaching the end of their first year will be given help by CPAC staff to explore career and further educational options.

In this information session, a presentation will be given by program coordinator Andrew Clifford, MCI, PhD.
