NOTIS’s Translation Division presents:
How to Be a Translator or Interpreter and Not Go Broke
Presented by Helen Eby
In this 2-hour webinar, we will consider the business of interpreting/translation from a variety of perspectives to develop a successful business plan.
CE credits are issued only to registered attendance at live webinars. This webinar will not be recorded.
During the webinar, the instructor will engage attendees by:
-
Asking questions for them to reply to in the chat, and cocreating answers to questions on a spreadsheet based on those questions.
-
Asking for participants comments at the end of every section and will occasionally reply to comments as she teaches without prompting.
-
Asking participants how they can apply the principles being discussed in their work environment.
-
Responses through the chat will be shared verbally so those who do not have access to the chat can participate as fully as possible.
Registrants will receive outline and rate-rationales.
Wednesday, May 22, 2024, 7 p.m. - 9 p.m. PST
Check-in at 6:50 p.m.
Two reminders will be sent: the first arriving three days before the workshop, and the second arriving on the day before. Each reminder will include log-on instructions and class handouts if applicable.
