Package Description

With Cris Silva, M.A., CT

Continuing Education Approval: CCHI for 1.5 instructional hours and by ATA for 1 CEP
 
Traditionally, we have only heard of translation tools. With the rapid developments in the interpretation industry, we can and should be exploring technology that interpreters can use to train and hone their craft. You'll learn how to get to the next level in public speaking, measuring voice quality, reading texts out loud, and more.

Learning objectives

  • Explain how audio book-type apps can prepare interpreters for assignments
