INTERPRETER TRAINING/WORKSHOP The Distance Opportunities for Interpreter Training Center (DO IT) and the University of Northern Colorado are promoting two interpreter training programs that may be of interest to your constituency; the new Bachelor of Arts in American Sign Language-English Interpreting and the Diagnostic Assessment and Skills Professional Development Training Series. This Bachelor of Arts in ASL - English Interpretation Program is a unique program in that it has been designed for distance delivery through the DO IT Center to impact the national need for highly qualified ASL-English interpreters. As well, it has been designed for the purpose of preparing confident interpreter candidates to achieve national certification and to enter the profession as competent, autonomous practitioners. The Diagnostic Assessment and Skills Training Series is a 3 semester program designed to help the interpreter analyze and improve both their ASL to English and English to ASL competencies. This professional development series has been developed to meet the needs of novice interpreters through nationally certified interpreters. This series is offered in collaboration with the RSA Mid-America Regional Interpreter Education (MARIE) Center.
