Program Overview


The Diploma of Interpreting prepares students for community and business interpreting roles, including in healthcare, education, and tourism. The program covers ethical practice, preparation, interpretation in general settings, and subject-specific terminology.

Program Outline

Outline:

  • Course Overview: The Diploma of Interpreting prepares interpreters for work typically in the community and business domains, including sectors such as general health, welfare and community services, educational and social contexts, and tourism.
