From our personal lives to our workday lives, I imagine that\u00a0<b>most of us have felt the impact<\/b>\u00a0of all that this year has sent our way and felt it on many levels.<\/p>\n<p>It is said that when external conditions force adjustment upon us, it is best to contemplate the positive instead of dwelling in the negative. I do not offer this observation lightly: as some of our students know, we here at\u00a0<b>The Interpreter\u2019s Lab\u00a0<\/b>have been touched by loss and sadness in our own personal lives in recent months and so to\u00a0<b>consider the light rather than the dark\u00a0<\/b>is advice that we have also been following.<\/p>\n<p>The quiet time that resulted as a change to everyone\u2019s schedules allowed the team at\u00a0<b>The Interpreter\u2019s Lab\u00a0<\/b>to review and reflect on our own programs and offerings.<br \/>\nMoving to an online learning organization was something that we had planned several years ago, not ever foreseeing the events of this year and how the move to online teaching was a fortunate chain of actions given the pandemic response.<\/p>\n<p>When we first shifted our courses to the online blended learning,\u00a0<b>some of our students hesitated to join a virtual course,<\/b>\u00a0fearing that the technology would be too confusing, that there would be no interaction with other students, and other concerns. But once they actually participated in a class, they could not stop saying\u00a0<b>how much better online is<\/b>!<\/p>\n<p>Because<b>\u00a0we want you all to know just how much better online can be<\/b>, from now until December 31, 2020,\u00a0<b>previous TIL students can sign on to our Interpreting in Community Settings Course \u2013 online \u2013 for only $197 (that is a $300 savings!) \u2013\u00a0<\/b>less than\u00a0<b>$6 per hour<\/b>\u00a0for expert content and instruction.<\/p>\n<p>Not only do you get to experience the online environment, you also get:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>An opportunity to take a\u00a0<b>refresher\/update on your skills<\/b><\/li>\n<li>Learn new content \u2013 our courses are continuously being updated with the\u00a0<b>best and latest resources and information<\/b><\/li>\n<li>Learn how to\u00a0<b>navigate an online environment<\/b>\u00a0(useful if you have made or are making the shift to remote interpreting)<\/li>\n<li>Receive an actual\u00a0<b>Certificate of Completion<\/b>\u00a0as all of our courses now include a final exam<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<blockquote><p>Think of it as an opportunity to take a refresher course for 1\/3 of the price.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPeople of different backgrounds and experience come together to learn and share. Comfortable learning environment to learn community interpreting. Practical knowledge, case studies and videos that give me a clearer picture of how interpreting world is like as it is hard to understand without examples. I enjoy this online class; it saves me so much traveling time. And it\u2019s actually better than I expected how an online course would be. Being able to interact with everybody online is a plus.\u201d<i><br \/>\n<\/i>Student \u2013 Interpreting in Healthcare Settings, Spring 2019<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The Interpreter\u2019s Lab has been providing interpreter education since 2012. In 2019 all of our programs were fully online which means that for 7 years we delivered our courses in a real, live, physical classroom. The shift to online, blended teaching was done once we realized how much better it could be for our students for multiple reasons:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>More content and resources for students<\/li>\n<li>Longer duration\/time for students to access course content<\/li>\n<li>Multiple instructors<\/li>\n<li>Opportunity to watch the recorded lessons if a student misses a class or if they just want to re-watch the lesson<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Not to mention no driving or taking public transit, no parking, and no extra costs and time.<\/p>\n<p>So, in this time of change, and as many of you may have some extra time and energy, we want to extend a special offer to all our former students that have taken a course with The Interpreter\u2019s Lab prior to 2018. This is for all those students that participated in a traditional, physical classroom and that have never taken an online course with us.<\/p>\n<p>\u2026Interested?<br \/>\nThe next course start September 8, 2020.\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.interpreterslab.org\/register\">Register NOW<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2026Not ready or too soon?<br \/>\nThen register for our October** course.<\/p>\n<h3>USE COUPON CODE\u00a0randr2020\u00a0to get your $300 discount*<\/h3>\n<p>As long as you take any one of the 2 Interpreting in Community Settings courses available before December 31, 2020 you qualify for the reduced fee.<\/p>\n<p>*NOTE: This offer is only for returning students that have not yet taken an online course with The Interpreter\u2019s Lab.<br \/>\n** NOTE: The Interpreter\u2019s Lab reserves the right to make schedule changes as required.
