Dear MN Translators,

Please find below an email I received today for some
upcoming testings at the IMIA conference. Best regards

Mohamad Anwar
====================================================================
This year three organizations will offer testing right at the IMIA
Conference, some at a discount to conference participants.

The IMIA has been promoting interpreting skills testing as a means to
advance the profession and assess your interpreting skills. Please
see information on language proficiency testing and interpreting
skills testing in the Resources section of this website. An
impressive test result can be a great addition to your resume and the
IMIA will start including testing credentials in the IMIA national
registry of medical interpreters as a way to differentiate more
qualified interpreters. Taking an interpreting skills test is an
effective way to prepare for our upcoming IMIA Certification.
