Exceptional interpreting includes ongoing and continual interpreter training. LUNA’s workshops and trainings on specialized topics help ASL interpreters further develop their skills and enhance their service to clients. Events are held throughout the year on a variety of topics including, but not limited to:
Medical Interpreting
From the specifics of interpreting surgery to the broader issues of ethical decision-making in the field, we cover a variety of topics throughout the year to help you hone your skills in the medical industry.
New to Interpreting
LUNA cares about training and supporting those early in their ASL interpreting career. Our workshops are designed for ASL interpreters to build vocabulary, learn new techniques, and evaluate one’s progress and needs for improvement.
Mentorship
ASL Mentoring Training is a six-hour, one-day training for nationally certified interpreters who would like to know more about the mentoring process. After this training, participants can become a mentor for LUNA in the Pathways to Certification mentoring program (CEU’s offered).
