Five regional centers and one national center work collaboratively to change the way our field traditionally thinks of and provides education and professional development to sign language interpreters. We foster networks among all stakeholders in our academic, professional and consumer communities and investigate and disseminate proven approaches to teaching, mentoring, program administration, and consumer education.
Through our efforts, we will increase the number and diversity of qualified interpreters and advance the field of interpreting and interpreting education. Please use the links on the side of the page to explore our projects and learn more about us.
