training is on!

The long awaited training for interpreters has finally been kicked off after a gap of 11 years. the first course was held from 16th to 24th of august and the second is being held in Kolkata from 4th to 12th of September.

An added piece of wonderful news is that the RCI i issuing a specific CRE credit for the course and the attendees who complete and make the grade will be receiving a certificate from the RCI valid across the country. the first ever specific interpreters training qualification has thus been launched.

We are really excited that the first course with 7 interpreters and 3 deaf trainees went off so well. there are courses planed now for the eastern zone and the south zone in bhubaneswar, coimbatore and bhopal in the upcoming few months.

The work on the post of 'sign language interpreter' continues as we all know that this is the necessary catalyst to promote the profession and give it the deserved attention.

more update in the near future.

the world association sign language interpreters is having conference in Durban, see the link below if you wish to attend.

  1. It would really help if we could increase the adoption of the International Sign Language and help work toward a common sign language rather than adopt a different sign language in each part of the world.
