This skill set is designed to prepare candidates to sit the NAATI Certified Provisional Interpreter test by providing essential knowledge of the basic interpreting principles and techniques. The course meets the minimum training requirements set by NAATI and is recommended for candidates who are already in (or are well placed to be in) interpreting or language-related roles within a workplace or community.

The interpreting skill set is also a direct pathway to the Diploma of Interpreting for those who are looking for more in-depth training (subject to language availability). Please see our separate webpage for details and dates.

The interpreting skill set is delivered and assessed in English. Students practice in language pairs where possible to provide each other with language-specific feedback.

Students will complete 4 units and 6 assessments over 12 weeks and will need to allocate additional time during the week to cover:
- Ethics in interpreting and translating
- Preparation for an interpreting or translating assignment
- Building glossaries
- Interpreting techniques
