As an interpreter having support is essential to your success. There are a variety of reasons why interpreters do not accept secure facility assignments. Some of these reasons include misconceptions about secure facilities, insufficient training, and lack of support after assignments. With this course, we are working to change this narrative, and support interpreters so they feel equipped to accept these assignments.
