Northwest Translators and Interpreters Society upcoming events

Mother Tongue in Other Tongues: Life in Translation, a Public talk by Translator Aron Aji (11/10/2026)

Wed, 11 Nov 2026 00:30:00 GMT

Aron Aji cannot recall a time when he was not translating. Growing up in Turkey among Ladino, Hebrew, and French used at home and then, from elementary school on, in Turkish—and studying in English later—he learned to move between languages long before he began translating Turkish literature. In this talk, Aji asks what that lifelong experience brings to the page. What happens when English meets a Turkish text on its own terms? How might the text stretch English’s rhythms and expressive habits, rather than simply fit into them? Aji calls his approach “acoustic translation”: an act of close listening that draws on memory, sound, and the senses to recreate the experience of a work in another language. Translation, in this account, is a way of hearing a text—and of finding one’s way back to the languages of one’s life.

About the speaker: Aron Aji has published ten book-length translations of modern and contemporary Turkish literature, alongside numerous translations of poetry and prose. His translation of Bilge Karasu’s The Garden of Departed Cats won the National Translation Award, and his co-translation with Selin Gökçesu of Ebru Ojen’s Lojman won the 2024 Republic of Consciousness Prize. His translations also include works by Murathan Mungan (with David Gramling) and Ferit Edgü. His most recent translation of Edgu’s landmark novel, A Season in Hakkari, will be published in 2027. For many years, Aji directed the University of Iowa’s Translation Programs; he is a past president (2016-2019) of the American Literary Translators Association.

This event is free and open to the public. For more information, please visit the website here.

Diabetes for Medical Interpreters | Live via Zoom | 4 CEUs by DSHS (#888), CCHI, ATA, 0.4 by IMIA/NBCMI | Member Rate: $68 (11/14/2026)

NOTIS’s Community Interpreters Division (CID) presents:

Diabetes for Medical Interpreters
Presented by Rosemary Cano and Yuliya Speroff

Diabetes is a serious health condition that affects over 34 million Americans. Diabetes can have serious long-term effects on patients’ health and lead to severe complications. Management and treatment of diabetes may involve a team of medical professionals — from endocrinologists to mental health specialists, as well as the patient and their family.

This class is designed to help interpreters prepare for interpreting in encounters related to diabetes care — whether it’s an insulin injection education session or a dialysis discussion. The class will cover:

Definition of diabetes and related physiology
Common types of diabetes
How diabetes is diagnosed
Common approaches to treating diabetes
Complications of diabetes
Challenges for interpreters
Terminology and interpreting skills practice

Please note that mobile phone participation is not recommended, as workshops may include breakout room activities requiring a camera and microphone.

Saturday, November 14th, 2026, 9 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. PST
Check-in at 8:50 a.m. Class from 9 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.

Ethical Conundrums in Medical Interpreting | Live via Zoom | 1 Ethics + 2 General CEUs by DSHS (#804), CCHI, IMIA/NBCMI, ATA | Member Rate: $54 (11/21/2026)

Sat, 21 Nov 2026 17:00:00 GMT

NOTIS’s Community Interpreters Division (CID) presents:

Ethical Conundrums in Medical Interpreting
Handle ethical dilemmas with clarity and confidence while staying within your professional role

Presented by Eliana Lobo

Many, if not most, of the ethical mistakes made by interpreters tends to come from a place of trying to be helpful, polite, or supportive. But the unintended consequence may be an ethical violation. Understanding role boundaries clearly can help interpreters navigate the waters of customer service in a way that consistently upholds the Code of Ethics.

This webinar will explore all of the above. Scripts will be shared for positive, professional interaction, and breakout room sessions will offer the opportunity for attendees to practice.

Attendees will learn to describe:

What a code of ethics is
Why a code of ethics exists for every health profession
What the interpreter code of ethics covers

Handouts: We will have a Venn diagram activity for attendees to compare the codes of ethics and then report back on ethics held in common. Please print them prior to the workshop or have them ready on another device.

Saturday, November 21, 2026, 9:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. PDT.
IMPORTANT: Check-in begins at 8:50 a.m. Class from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.

Online via Zoom
Three days in advance, and again the day before the event, you will receive reminder emails with log-on instructions. Email info@notisnet.org or Text 425-615-6741 if you don't receive a reminder.

Death and Interpreting: How We Die and End-Of-Life Care in Healthcare Settings
Presented by Nada Conner

What is this about?
This three-hour webinar is designed for healthcare interpreters and other language professionals who want to expand their understanding of the process of dying, end-of-life support, palliative care, next-of-kin, brain death, autopsy, and burial methods. This course focuses on applying interpreting skills in real-life healthcare encounters.

Course Description
This course is a comprehensive, in-depth training about the process of dying. It explains biological and brain death, how death is determined, who can determine death, life support measures, palliative care, as well as autopsy and burial methods.

Death has always been a subject that people may find difficult to discuss. In this course, we approach the topic from a practical and professional perspective, exploring how death is defined medically and legally, and what interpreters need to know when working in these settings. Topics include end-of-life support, palliative care, brain death, next-of-kin, and medical assistance in dying (MAID), as well as cause and manner of death and post-death procedures.

After This Workshop, Participants Will Be Able To:

Identify key mechanisms involved in the process of dying and how death is determined
Become familiar with hospice and palliative care, and distinguish between in-home and facility hospice
Define life support measures, including CPR, mechanical ventilation, defibrillation, and artificial nutrition and hydration
Distinguish between DNR and DNI
Describe the concept of next-of-kin
Apply medical interpreting skills in real-life healthcare situations
Use complex terminology accurately in challenging encounters
Handle sensitive conversations with professionalism while maintaining appropriate role boundaries

Participants will receive:

Full presentation slides
Glossary of key terms
Source materials
Ten knowledge check scenarios
Five interpreter challenges
Three role-play practice scenarios based on real-life interpreting situations
Knowledge check questions

Healing After Vicarious Trauma for Interpreters | Live via Zoom | 3 CEUs by DSHS (#746), AOC, CCHI, ATA, 0.3 by IMIA/NBCMI | Member Rate: $52 (01/16/2027)

Sat, 16 Jan 2027 17:00:00 GMT

NOTIS’s Community Interpreter Division (CID) presents:

What Happened to You?

Healing After Vicarious Trauma for Interpreters
Presented by Marisa Rueda Will, CHI

Course Description:
Vicarious trauma is a hazard of the job for healthcare workers and community service providers. Medical interpreters are not immune to this risk. However, unlike other healthcare and community service providers, interpreters often do not have a built-in support network they can turn to when they are suffering the effects of work-induced vicarious trauma.

Throughout this three-hour workshop, interpreters will learn how vicarious trauma may have affected them. They will also learn how to recognize their default physical and emotional responses to trauma. By recognizing their default trauma responses, interpreters can begin to understand how their bodies and minds are affected by traumatic events.

Furthermore, interpreters will learn how vicarious trauma can lead to positive and productive growth in the future. Interpreters will be able to understand which behaviors and actions are more likely to lead to healing and resilience. Likewise, they will be able to identify which coping behaviors are more likely to lead to addictive and harmful patterns in the long term.

Learning Objectives:

Identify common initial and delayed responses to trauma and vicarious trauma.
Recognize symptoms associated with vicarious trauma.
Distinguish between healthy and unhealthy coping strategies.
Understand which behaviors and thoughts are more likely to lead to post-traumatic growth.
Share traumatic experiences with interpreting colleagues in a safe space.

Please note that mobile phone participation is not recommended, as workshops may include breakout room activities requiring a camera and microphone.

Resources:
Each learner will receive the following:

Copy of the PowerPoint presentation

Interpreting for Dental Services

Presented by Cindy Roat

What is it about?

Bridges, dams, abutments, and anchors – are you interpreting in construction? No! It’s dentistry, and the vocabulary alone can pose some real, um, “concrete” challenges.

This 8-hour webshop will prepare participants to provide interpreting services for five types of dental care: dental hygiene, restorations, extractions, prosthodontics (dentures and implants), and oral surgery. The class will also include basic oral anatomy and a discussion of specific challenges for interpreters serving in dental venues.

Taught in presenter Cindy Roat’s signature style mixing lecture, polls, games, and exercises (plus lots of really bad puns), this class is designed for experienced interpreters and advanced learners. The class will move quickly, covering a lot of material in a short time.

Participants will receive:

A copy of the PowerPoint presentation.
An English vocabulary exercise for each of the first five dental topics
A conversion exercise for each topic
A practice interpreting dialogue for each topic, available in English-Spanish, English-Arabic, English-Korean, English-Cantonese, English-Mandarin, English-Russian, English-Vietnamese and English only.
A bilingual glossary of dental terms available in English-Spanish, English-Arabic, English-Korean, English-Cantonese, English-Mandarin, English-Russian, English-Vietnamese and English only.

Join us for a class that will give you lots to chew on!

This specialized course is designed for medical interpreters seeking to deepen their understanding of migraine, a prevalent neurological disorder affecting millions worldwide. As a medical interpreter, their role is crucial in ensuring that patients receive accurate and empathetic care, particularly when dealing with complex conditions like migraine. This course will equip participants with the necessary knowledge and skills to effectively interpret medical consultations, diagnoses, and treatment plans related to migraine. By preparing to interpret in encounters related to migraine diagnosis and management, medical interpreters will play a vital role in enhancing patient care, reducing medical errors, and contributing to better health outcomes for those suffering from this debilitating condition.

Learning Goals: After attending this class, the participants will be familiar with:

Definition of migraine
Common types of migraine disorder
The specific medical terminology and phrases commonly used to describe migraine symptoms and manifestations, complications, common treatment options, anatomy and physiology of areas of the brain and the body affected by this disorder

The participants will also have an opportunity to integrate new terminology into their practice by engaging in interpreting skill development activities, such as sight translation and consecutive interpretation exercise.

The class materials were reviewed by Nicholas Karagas MD/PhD, Department of Neurology, UW Medicine.

The class was expanded to a 2-hour class with inclusion of interpreting skills development activities, such as sight translation exercises and consecutive interpretation dialogues.

Surgery and Cardiology Meds for Language Professionals

Presented by Marisa Rueda Will, CHI

Course Description: This is a 4-hour workshop designed for medical interpreters and translators who work with patients who are undergoing surgery or have heart problems. Medications used in surgical settings are critical for patient safety and the success of procedures. This session will guide language professionals through the terminology and communication challenges associated with surgeryrelated medications, including anesthetics, analgesics, muscle relaxants, and anticoagulants used to manage surgical risks.

Additionally, learners are introduced to cardiac medications and the challenges interpreters and translators face in conveying complex terminology accurately. Through engaging stories, practical scenarios, and interactive exercises, participants will gain deeper knowledge of cardiovascular treatments, medication adherence, and strategies to enhance patient-provider communication. This webinar explores essential cardiac medications used for conditions such as hypertension, heart failure, arrhythmias, and anticoagulation therapy. Topics include beta-blockers, ACE inhibitors, and anticoagulants, their functions, side effects, and patient adherence considerations.

Learning Objectives

Identify and define key cardiac medication classes, such as betablockers, ACE inhibitors, and anticoagulants, to accurately interpret healthcare provider instructions.
Develop strategies to navigate terminology challenges and ensure accurate interpretation of cardiac medication discussions.
Identify different types of anesthesia.
Visualize preoperative anesthetic procedures.

Interpreting for Ophthalmology | Live via Zoom | 5 CEUs by DSHS (#907), CCHI, IMIA/NBCMI, ATA | Member Rate: $82 (03/27/2027)

Interpreting for Ophthalmology:

A Webshop for Interpreters of All Languages

Presented by Joe Tein, M.A.

What is it about?

The human eye is small in size but extraordinarily complex in design and function. Our eyesight connects us with the world around us: through our eyes we perceive shapes, movement, color, written language, art, and human emotion. Our eyes allow us to read, drive, work, recognize friends and loved ones, and live independently. The preservation of vision is therefore not only a medical activity, but also a deeply human priority.

Because vision affects nearly every aspect of our daily lives, ophthalmology plays a vital role in preserving safety, independence, relationships and quality of life. In this webshop we will explore the language, anatomy, disorders, diagnostic procedures, and treatments most commonly encountered in ophthalmology interpreting to help us support patients and providers during their important conversations.

The course emphasizes understanding of basic ophthalmology concepts and strengthening interpreting skills. The material will be presented through detailed explanatory handouts, PowerPoint slide presentation, interpreting practice in Zoom breakout rooms, group discussions and periodic reviews. One version of this webshop will be offered for English-Spanish interpreters; a separate presentation will be prepared for interpreters in other language pairs.

After completing this webshop, participants will have a basic understanding of how the eyes function and the symptoms, disorders, diagnostic procedures and treatments used in ophthalmology; and increased fluency in accurately interpreting this terminology between their working languages.

Learning objectives:

Participants will obtain an understanding of the major anatomical structures of the eye and their function.
Participants will understand and be able to translate between their working languages a wide variety of terms related to symptoms and disorders seen in ophthalmology.
Participants will understand and be able to translate terms related to diagnostic procedures and the treatments provided for a variety of eye disorders.
Participants will learn basic actions and behaviors they can follow to increase the health and safety of their own vision.
Participants will learn resources to help them find additional information about ophthalmology and ophthalmology terminology translation support.

Please print your workshop handouts. They will be used during breakout room practice activities. If you are unable to print them, please have them open on a second screen or device.

Interested in this workshop but don’t work with Spanish?
We are planning to offer a language-neutral version of this workshop in the future. The date has not yet been determined, so please stay tuned for future announcements!

When? Saturday, March 27, 2027, from 9:00 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. PST
