The Bilingual Mediation Center

BMC directs its energy to the development of tools and processes which foster understanding and respect for each other's needs and goals as interpreters.

Our approach is to serve interpreting communities offering custom-designed professional development programs that work with them on a continuing basis. Each community has a unique history, varied demographics, and a range of issues to consider. Both locally and nationally, BMC places emphasis on finding approaches to creating change in a constructive manner.

Through this approach BMC offers sequential instructional sessions, with adequate spacing to allow for practice, experience, and integration of skills taught in earlier trainings.

We provide these services:

• Direct training of interpreters at all levels
• Development of appropriate assessments and diagnostic tools
• Assistance to interpreter educators by designing curriculum and effective methods for teaching interpretation
• Implementation of programs to refine performance (e.g.. mentorship)
• Creation of materials to assist interpreters to develop further
