Return to {$returnto_text} Return to: Programs of Study (A-Z)

The Community Spanish Interpreter curriculum prepares individuals to work as entry-level bilingual professionals who will provide communication access in interview and interactive settings. In addition, this curriculum provides educational training for working professionals who want to acquire Spanish language
skills.
 
Course work includes the acquisition of Spanish: grammar, structure, and sociolinguistic properties, cognitive processes associated with interpretation between Spanish and English; the structure and character of the Hispanic community; and acquisition of communication skills.
 
Graduates should qualify for entry-level jobs as para-professional bilingual employees in educational systems or a variety of community settings. Individuals may choose from part-time, full-time, or self-employment/free-lance positions, or apply language skills to other human service related areas.
 
Although placement testing is not required for this particular pathway, some of the classes within this pathway do require certain math or reading levels and therefore would require a placement test or other testing scores before registration. Please check each course within this pathway to see which applies.
