Our courses explore the "Best Practices" of the Professional Interpretation industry for the Community, Social, Medical, Legal and Behavioral Health settings.
1 World took a break from providing education for two years so the educators themselves upgraded their education.
Our "Full Menu" of course options are in progress and will represent worthwhile upgraded and positive options for professional interpreter education. Most importantly, back to the prices we led the industry at for years.
For now to accomplish that goal: we are the only agency/educators who have a fast-track low cost course you may be eligible for - to start work within a week.
You need to apply by first sending in your resume, fill out our hiring paperwork and if approved, we will offer you our low cost course for $40, to cover administrative costs only.
We plan to put you to work immediately, as you are able.
This is only offered to our own linguists. You need to accept at least 2 assignments offered a month for 3 months, or pay 1WT $20/month. Exceptions are possible; we are reasonable.
We are all about the win-win!
We will be offering a full spectrum of courses from the basics to specialty areas at affordable prices you won't find elsewhere,
in keeping with our mission to the community and industry.
Courses to be offered in later 2024 and 2025: Translation, Legal and Simultaneous Interpreting, Worker's Compensation: Do's and Dont's, Ethics Explored in Depth for Professional Interpreting. Medical Terminology and Pharmacology by Body System.
And Behavioral Health Interpreting.
The courses offered are for practical everyday use and beneficial to prepare for a national medical interpreter certification examination (CCHI/NBCMI), a la carte. As needed.
1 World EdUcenter has enjoyed tremendous outcomes with past students, especially with content retention.
Similar courses teach a high volume of information over a short period. There is little time to study or absorb what is taught. Students push hard to get through the course, study and pass the test. Little retention and true learning is gained. Then they sign up for another (expensive) review course.
1World EdUCenter came up with a two evening a week and weekend afternoon schedule over 3+ weeks that does not overly disrupt family life and protects the money and time investment.
Our outcomes have yielded confident interpreters who are more competent everyday, require less study time for and are more capable to pass the national medical certification examinations.
It has always been our honor and mission to provide affordable and Best Practices quality access to education for a better community and world for refugees and providers.
"The course was extremely beneficial and productive. The instruction was quite valuable and provided me with a solid foundation in the fundamentals of interpreting. It was a pleasure to learn with Carolina, and I appreciated the opportunity to communicate with my classmates via drills in the class." Sukyung Na- October 2021
“I am very impressed with this short but valuable course! The information provided is very helpful and important. I'm glad I decided to become certified through 1 World Translation. I highly recommend it!”
Keila Pina- October 202
“Carolina’s constructive feedback and advice during each lesson helped me understand the subject, and I now feel I have the confidence to work as a professional medical interpreter. I had the pleasure of meeting great people and learned about their experiences during the course. Thank you for answering my questions so quickly, and for making this course so enjoyable.”
Veronica Perez - October 2021
The Community Interpreter® (TCI) course addresses working in community settings such as health and human services, schools and an introduction to the legal system. There is also a medical course which is the most in demand and what 1WT will be teaching starting this August, 2024.
While there are a variety of courses that can be taken: International, Medical and Community based versions, the medical is the most in demand, while still being able to benefit from this broad-based program. It offers the linguists comfort in offering their services to schools, any number of community-based organizations and learn/start skills in simultaneous and legal interpreting.
The headquarters is fom the nationally licensed Cross Cultural Communications.
