Tube feeding is an intervention used in almost every area of medicine: neonatology, pediatrics, geriatrics, obstetrics, surgery, behavioral health, and many more. Come learn from an Advanced Nutritional Support Dietician which patients are candidates for feeding tubes and why. In this webshop, we will cover the types of tubes that can be offered, what goes in them, and how patients and caregivers are taught to care for them. Live exercises will work on interpretation skills and vocabulary building so that you will never have to ask what a “tubbie” is or how decanting works. Our expert will walk you through every step and have you feeling like a pro in no time!

Goals of the webshop:

Become familiar with the different types of feeding tubes, the process of placing each type of feeding tube, the basics of feeding tube care, common formulas/formula types, and expected follow up
Recognize vocabulary and concepts related to feeding tubes and situate them in context
Improve interpretation-related skills that will be used in encounters involving feeding tubes
Build a glossary to help prepare for sessions or translations involving feeding tubes

Interpreting for Well Visits
Presented by Eliana Lobo

Are you new to healthcare interpreting? Are you a conference, social services or court interpreter who is interested in taking healthcare assignments? If so, this is the workshop for you!

NOTE: This is a pre-recorded workshop reformatted for on-demand viewing.

Valid through June 21, 2026.
You can register and complete the quiz anytime until that date.

This webshop is a two-hour workshop, covering interpreting for check-ups and well visits in the following areas of specialization: Adult Medicine and Pediatrics, often referred to as Family Medicine, and the Dental Clinic. Topics one can expect to cover in each clinic; how to prepare in advance (terminology and concepts related to development, metrics and measurements); proper protocols before, during and after the examination will be reviewed. Resources, recommendations and best practices for interpreting in these settings will be shared.

Standards of Practice related to sight translation and assisting patients with forms will be looked at carefully. You will learn about a tool for quickly assessing sight translation requests (that is, weeding out requests that are appropriate from those that are not, along with practical suggestions for handling these requests. Best practice recommendations for navigating privacy issues when assisting patients with paperwork will be shared, as well as how to handle the entering of personal information on forms. The importance of the Pre-Session will be reviewed.

Most of this presentation is devoted into delving into what distinguishes annual check-ups for both men vs women, adult vs an infant or child, and for dental appointments. What one can expect will take place during these types of well visits will be explained. With the changes brought about by the implementation of Section 1557, more and more dental practices are scheduling interpreters for their patients. A review of practices for preventative (annual check-ups) and corrective (orthodontia) dental care will be reviewed.

This session also covers best practice for assisting patients with intake and return visit paperwork, and NCIHC recommendations for what qualifies for sight translation, and what types of documents need to be professionally translated.
There will be practice delivering a brief, yet complete pre-session, and how to ask for repetitions and clarifications in a professional manner. Methods (formulas) and phone apps for converting from imperial to metric measures will be shared. Mathematical concepts such as median, mean, average, percentage and percentile, will be discussed in order to help attendees grasp the concepts clearly, so as to find equivalents for their language pair.
Free links to reputable resources for glossaries, terminology, patient education material and standards of practice will be provided.

This is a recorded workshop reformatted into an on-demand format.

NOTIS’s Community Interpreters Division presents:

What You Need to Succeed as a Video Remote Interpreter

Build the skills, setup, and confidence to succeed in real-world video remote interpreting.

Presented by Eliana Lobo

Valid through October 16, 2026. You can register and complete the quiz anytime until that date.

NOTE: This is a pre-recorded workshop reformatted for on-demand viewing.

This workshop looks at best practices for remote interpreting from home. Increasingly, during the pandemic, many onsite interpreters have made this shift as independent contractors. Telehealth is booming, and despite the easy commute when one works from home, assignments have gotten tougher, as remote interpreting requests have grown in scope and increasingly are scheduled for complex encounters, during this pandemic.

Guidelines for choosing equipment, workstation set-up and connectivity requirements, observing HIPAA, and managing clients during the session are shared. We’ll look at how to: enhance one’s remote persona, and utilize scripts to enforce best practice (pre-session, confidentiality, transparency and managing the flow). Local and Federal law governing call center employment practices will be examined. Links will be shared for materials and exercises to assist interpreters with skills assessment and enhancement.

Learning Objectives:

1) Understand how to triage requests to the appropriate modality
2) Know how to configure your home or call center workstation for best user experience
3) Understand the importance of continually self-assessing one’s interpreting skills; knowing where to find training materials to develop and improve that skillset

Interpreting for OB/GYN

Understand the language and emotions behind OB/GYN care and interpret with confidence.

Presented by Marisa Rueda Will

Valid through April 9, 2028. You can register and complete the quiz anytime until that date.

NOTE: This is a pre-recorded workshop reformatted for on-demand viewing.

Approximately 10% of individuals struggle with infertility problems. The chances are that you know someone who has been affected by difficulty trying to conceive or have a baby. Unlike many medical specialties, reproductive endocrinology is rarely covered by medical insurance. Most patients who seek these treatments have saved for years to see a specialist that can help them try to conceive and have a pregnancy that ends in a live birth.

The stakes are high for limited English proficient patients who seek this type of medical care. It is imperative these patients receive accurate information from an interpreter who understands the physical, emotional, and financial struggles they have endured to receive this care.

During this four-hour webinar, interpreters will hear from a patient, named Sarah, who has experienced infertility struggles. Sarah will share about her struggles with polycystic ovary syndrome which caused her difficulty conceiving a child. She will share about the hardships she and her husband experienced throughout their infertility journey. You will also get a chance to practice what it would be like to interpret for a patient like Sarah through guided consecutive interpreting practice.

Learning Objectives:

Understand how infertility is defined in women and men by reproductive endocrinology specialists.
Recognize commonly used infertility treatments in a stepwise approach.
Distinguish between the physical, emotional, and financial challenges patients’ face while trying to conceive.
Identify medical conditions that are often associated with infertility problems.
Practice interpreting complex human reproduction topics with dialogues based on a patient’s personal experience.

Watch at your convenience and earn continuing education credits!

Participants will receive presentation slides, handouts, and glossary.

On Demand: Staying in Your Lane: Scope of Practice for Court Interpreters (Self-Paced Course with Continuing Education Credits) 3 CEUs by AOC. ATA, OJD, CIMCE $30/Members (08/04/2025)

Mon, 04 Aug 2025 07:00:00 GMT

NOTIS’s Legal Division presents:

Staying in Your Lane: Scope of Practice for Court Interpreters

Navigate complex situations with confidence by understanding your role and professional boundaries in court interpreting.

Presented by Melinda Gonzalez-Hibner

Valid through December 31, 2026

NOTE: This is a pre-recorded workshop reformatted for on-demand viewing.

Course Description:

Often, our sense of obligation to the justice system, to language access, or to our role as officers of the court collides with the expectations of unobtrusiveness and impartiality that are fundamental to the profession. This is understandable, as we can be simultaneously defined as interpreters, officers of the court, subject matter experts, independent contractors or court staff. The fact that many of us work in healthcare, community and conference settings can also serve to complicate our ability to respond appropriately to complex situations in the courtroom.

The environment outside the courtroom, while perhaps less complicated, also poses challenges for novice and experienced interpreters alike. In the absence of guidance from our code of professional conduct, professional interactions with our peers can be rewarding, frustrating or unclear.

What should one do if a colleague is misinterpreting testimony? Or stating on the record that they are certified, when they are not? What if the translated evidence presented by one of the parties is inaccurate? Should you share your opinion about the work of a colleague to one of your clients? Can you ever be a respectable “check” interpreter? Where does the role of the professional interpreter end, and the duty as an officer of the court begin?

If you have ever wondered how best to respond to challenging situations, inside or outside of the courtroom, this webinar is for you. We will discuss our scope of practice and how to apply our code of professional conduct in various settings. Come learn about our field from a wider perspective, including the repercussions your personal practices can have on your profession and your peers.

Learning Objectives:

By the end of the course, participants will be able to:

Become familiar with guidance regarding our role and scope of practice in the courtroom, specifically, canons 2, 3, 4, 5, and 8 of the Code of Professional Responsibility for Interpreters in the Oregon Courts.
Improve ability to recognize the limits of the interpreter role, whether staff or independent contractor
Gain knowledge and skills necessary to respond to challenging situations by proper application of official guidance and professional standards.
Learn whether official guidance from the state courts or professional associations have any bearing on our professional conduct outside of the courtroom

Participants will receive presentation slides and handouts.

NOTIS’s Legal Division presents:

Bridging Legal Systems: National Criminal Procedure in Latin America vs. U.S. Federal Courts

Understand key differences between Latin American and U.S. criminal procedures and interpret across systems with accuracy and confidence.

Presented by Katty Kauffman

Valid through April 5, 2027

NOTE: This is a pre-recorded workshop reformatted for on-demand viewing.

Course Description

Legal interpreters working in criminal cases must navigate the complexities of two distinct sets of judicial systems: the criminal justice systems of Latin America and U.S. court systems. This course provides an in-depth comparative analysis of criminal procedure reforms in key Latin American jurisdictions—Chile, Argentina, Peru, Colombia, and Mexico—and contrasts them with U.S. federal criminal procedure.

Participants will gain a deeper understanding of terminological differences, procedural stages, and legal frameworks that impact their work in federal courts and state courts, particularly in Washington State. Special emphasis will be placed on terminological shifts resulting from legal reforms and the interpreter’s role in ensuring accurate, technically appropriate renditions.

Through case studies, procedural flowcharts, and guided terminology exercises, participants will enhance their ability to interpret accurately in U.S. federal and state legal settings when working with Latin American legal concepts.

Note: This workshop includes materials in Spanish and will be conducted in both Spanish and English.

Learning Objectives

By the end of the course, participants will be able to:

1. Identify key procedural differences between national criminal justice systems in Latin America and the U.S. federal criminal procedure, including stages from arrest to sentencing.

2. Understand and apply specialized legal terminology used in Latin American criminal procedure, with reference to key reforms that have standardized terminology.

3. Analyze procedural flowcharts from Latin American national systems and the U.S. federal system to improve their ability to anticipate terminology and procedural steps during interpretation.

4. Compare and contrast equivalent legal concepts such as arraignment vs. audiencia de imputación and plea bargaining vs. salida alterna, ensuring accurate renditions. When relevant, explore Washington State-specific terminology and procedural differences.

NOTE: This is a pre-recorded workshop reformatted for on-demand viewing.

Course Description:

Translating official legal documents requires different approach than other kinds of translations.

Participants will gain a deeper understanding of procedural stages of working with clients directly, from initial communications to time and fee estimation, translation process, and finally certification of the translation.

By addressing the common problems, especially when concepts between the original and recipient are not equivalent, participants will enhance their ability to define those concepts of legal translation of official documents and apply them in their work.

By the end of the course participants will be able to:

Identify official documents, hearing personal experience related to the Croatian government
Learn how to identify the requirements specific to the recipient authority,
Gain awareness of the steps in the process to better estimate the time and cost of the service they provide,

Stress and Interpreting

Presented by Eliana Lobo

NOTE: This is a pre-recorded workshop reformatted for on-demand viewing.
Available through February 25, 2029. You can register and complete the quiz anytime until that date.

Do you find it harder to focus, remember, or keep up when interpreting under stress?

This on-demand training helps interpreters understand how stress affects performance and provides practical, evidence-based strategies to manage stress in real time.

Course Description

This on-demand training examines the impact of physiological and emotional stress on interpreting performance and provides interpreters with practical, evidence-based strategies to manage stress in real time. Participants will learn how stress responses—such as fight, flight, or freeze—affect memory, attention, breathing, processing speed, and language conversion, and how these effects can compromise accuracy and completeness.

The course explains the cognitive and neurological demands of interpreting, including the increased processing load required when working between two languages, and how stress further reduces cognitive capacity. Through guided instruction and applied exercises, participants will learn techniques to regulate stress responses, manage processing lag (décalage), maintain focus, and intervene professionally when communication begins to break down.

Participants will practice self-calming strategies, flow-management scripts, and targeted skill drills designed to strengthen neuroplasticity and improve performance under pressure. The training emphasizes proactive preparation, self-monitoring, and continued proficiency development to support interpreters working in high-stress environments such as healthcare, legal, and human services settings.

Learning Objectives

Upon successful completion of this course, participants will be able to:

Describe the physiological stress response, including the fight-or-flight reaction, and explain its impact on interpreting performance.
Identify how stress affects memory, breathing, attention, listening, processing time (décalage), and delivery.
Explain the additional cognitive steps involved in interpreting between two languages and why stress increases the risk of errors.
Apply self-calming techniques that activate the parasympathetic nervous system to reduce stress during interpreting assignments.
Demonstrate strategies for managing the flow of communication using professional scripts for clarification, repetition, and pre-session introductions.
Use targeted practice drills to strengthen neuroplasticity and increase resilience under cognitive and emotional stress.
Develop personalized study and preparation plans to improve readiness for high-stress assignments.

Embedded knowledge-check questions are included throughout the recording to reinforce learning.
