MICATA Upcoming Events

 

REEL JUSTICE

 

MICATA is pleased to announce that one of the interpreters’ workshops planned for this year, REEL JUSTICE, will be integrated as an introductory 2-hour session during the 2010 MICATA Annual Symposium (May 22, 2010).

 

Attendees will have the opportunity to participate in a session of Simultaneous Interpreting hands-on practice. The presenters are Phyllis Launius of the Office of State Courts Administration for the state of Missouri, and Marcela Renna, a U.S. and State Court Certified Spanish Interpreter. They will use clips of legal thriller movies to coach participants to simultaneously interpret from English into their other working language.

 

This event will be non-language specific.  Look for more details in information on the MICATA Symposium and we look forward to this fun event.
