Course Description

DE LA MORA Interpreter Training is now offering a course to take you one step closer to passing your Medical Interpreter Oral Exam. This class is best for students who have already taken the required 40 hours of medical training, but still want more in-depth and practical knowledge of sight, consecutive, and simultaneous interpretation.

All classes will be recorded and made available to the students within 24 hours as a reviewing resource for catching up or self-study sessions. If you have never taken an online class before, don’t worry! We host a separate orientation to make sure everyone is comfortable with accessing the course and to answer any questions.
