Hello all!

I am looking for a refresher course for (simultaneous) interpreting from Spanish or French into English. It can be anywhere in the world outside the United States (preferably Europe). I work in Italian to English but am specifically searching for French or Spanish to brush up, though Italian would be okay too.

Mostly I am thinking of something like a refresher course, anywhere from a week up to maybe 6 months.

Any ideas?

There is a Diploma in Public Service Interpreting arranged by the Chartered Institute of Linguists. You can just go to the exam but generally the Institute recommend that people do a course first to prepare for the exam.
There are a variety of universities offering these courses. This one from the London Met looks interesting:

Here is quite an exhaustive list of other centres offering similar courses:

Look out for courses offered at the London Met or Imperial College too. There don't seem to be any on at the moment but they often have short (week-long) courses called "Introduction to conference interpreting".

If you want to take a much longer course, the University of Surrey and the University of Manchester offer Masters that combine interpreting with translation. These generally last 9 months - 1 year in total.

If you'd like to do Spanish, there is a course at International House in Barcelona:

Good luck! ▲ Collapse
