MENTEES WANTED  NOW!
We have trained interpreter Mentors  who have yet to be matched in a mentorship. We are looking for pre-certified  interpreter Mentees interested in moving closer to certification!  Further  criteria can be found at the link below.

In  a recent survey assessing interpreter practitioner needs that was conducted by  the National Consortium, more than 80% responded positively when asked  whether they could benefit from a mentor or tutor.  When asked if they wanted a mentor, were one available, 77% responded yes.  In response to our  stakeholders, the Western  Region Interpreter  Education Center has trained 50 Mentors to date, ready to match with a  Mentee!
