About the Course:
Charlton Brown’s Diploma of Interpreting offers a formal qualification in interpreting that is endorsed by the National Accreditation Authority for Translators and Interpreters (NAATI).
The Diploma of Interpreting prepares interpreters for work typically in the community and business domains, including sectors such as general health, welfare and community services, educational and social contexts, and tourism.
As a pre-requisite course for the NAATI Certified Provisional Interpreter credential, Diploma of Interpreting offers an opportunity for students who are bilingual in English and LOTE to better harness their language proficiency for professional purposes. Incorporated with a well-rounded teaching with both essential knowledge of the industry and plentiful exercises to hone their skills in interpreting, students may get prepared for a career in the language service sector that serves a critical need in regards to multiculturalism and diversity.

NAATi Certified Translator of English from/to Chinese, NAATI Certified Interpreter of English and Mandarin, Master of Arts in Chinese Translation and Interpreting at the University of Queensland, Certificate IV in Teaching and Assessment. Out of great enthusiasm in translation and interpreting study, I started working in the language service sector since 2016, and joined the vocational education sector as a translating and interpreting trainer one year later.
I have always felt blessed being able to work in a career which I have a true interest in. Making communication between meanings of two completely different languages, deliberating on the choice of a word that is so subtle yet significant enough to affect the whole sentence, exploiting every possibility to formulate the ideal semantic structure that can best fit in the context … they all fascinate me so much. It is not only about teaching students to be proficient in translating and interpreting skills, but also to take enjoyment in this practice. And I just feel obliged to pass on every bit of it to anyone who wishes to learn.
