Sharing Ideas and Resources for Interpreters and Translators

Description: In addition to providing Immigrant and Multilingual Learners with high quality teaching and learning experiences, school districts are required, to the extent practicable, to communicate with parents in a language they can understand. If a written translation is not provided, an oral interpretation should be made available whenever needed. As a result, the Interpreter/Translator Network will come together to discuss Wisconsin's K-12 Translation and Interpretation requirements, Build Staff Capacity, Network, Share Ideas, Resources, and explore the text The 6 Principles for Exemplary Teaching of English Learners®: Young Learners in a Multilingual World. I look forward to exploring these topics with you!

Cost: $500.00 outside of CESA 2 Immigrant Grant Consortium membership. Free for CESA 2 Immigrant Grant Consortium Members
