"I loved the class! I received my certificate and now I am working as an interpreter in the state of GA. After class, my trainer gave me coaching for my resume, conducted mock interviews, and we even explored opening my agency. My coach... was instrumental to my career transition."

"Excellent Bridging the Gap (healthcare interpreting) training! I learned a ton over the course of two weekends. The training was fully online and meticulously prepared. I highly recommend it without hesitation to anyone venturing into healthcare interpreting. It also helped me prepare for the CoreCCHI examination."
