Medical Interpreter
Medical Interpreting Certificate
Medical interpreters are in great demand both in person and remotely by video or phone.
Interpreters can elect to work for a hospital, school, or state agency, or as contractors
with many agencies throughout the country. They can also elect to work remotely from
home where they can work independently and make their own hours. Open to all languages,
this 60-hour program provides working knowledge of medical interpreting, including
standards of practice, ethics, HIPAA regulations, cultural competency, and medical
terminology/vocabulary. The course provides intense practice via oral role plays on
a variety of medical topics. The student will also be introduced to VRI (video remote
interpreting) and OPI (Over the Phone Interpreting).
Offered in collaboration with TransFluenci EDU, this course is designed for those
preparing for entry level careers as medical interpreters as well as for working interpreters
preparing for the National Board Certificate exam. Students must be fully bilingual
and must be fluent in English and one other language. This program meets the National
Board for Medical Interpreter Certification training requirement and prepares you
to pass the national certification exam. Upon completion of this course, students
may elect to apply for national certification. For information on certification requirements
