interpretedu

Interpretedu is an online platform and resource hub focused on interpreter education and professional development for both sign language and spoken language interpreters. It provides curricula, practice tools, and reference materials to support learning across core interpretation skills, ethics, terminology management, and sector-specific practice such as medical, legal, and conference interpretation.

The platform offers a catalog of courses with video lectures, interactive drills, and simulated interpretation scenarios designed to improve listening, memory, and rendering accuracy. It also includes a certification-prep track with study guides, practice tests, and assessment rubrics to support credential candidates. In addition, a terminology library, style guides, and best-practice resources help standardize interpretation work and promote quality.

Interpretedu features a community component with forums, peer review, mentorship programs, and opportunities for internships or volunteer interpreting projects, facilitating collaboration among learners and practitioners. Governance and funding are described as transparent, with contributions from educators, interpreters, and partner institutions, and content created by subject-matter experts and updated to reflect current standards.

The platform is used by students, trainees, and licensed interpreters seeking continuing education, as well as by training programs integrating its resources. While some reviewers call for ongoing evaluation of online content quality, supporters cite its flexibility, accessibility, and broad reach as key strengths.
