National Interpreter Trainers’ (NIT) Huddle

The National Interpreter Trainers’ (NIT) Huddle is a forum, facilitated by CCHI, in which interpreter trainers and educators can interact with each other, discuss innovations and challenges, and share best practices for developing training programs that meet the ever-evolving role of the healthcare interpreter.

The Huddle is organized on the following principles:

• Participation in the Huddle is open to the public, however working interpreter trainers and educators are the target audience for the discussions.
• The Huddle is not a membership organization; it is rather a communication exchange on the topics identified by participants.
• The Huddle participation requires no commitment.
• The Huddle participants abide by the U.S. antitrust laws (https://www.ftc.gov/tips-advice/competition-guidance/guide-antitrust-laws).
• The Huddle may invite representatives of interpreters, supervisors, managers, and directors of language access programs and offices of DEI in healthcare settings, etc. as presenters/consultants on specific topics.

The NIT Huddle meets quarterly via Zoom. The Huddle participants also have access to the participants-only forum where they can post questions to the group and discuss issues of interest.

If you are a working interpreter trainer or educator (or an interpreter aspiring to be a trainer), we invite you to join the conversation!
