Hello Everyone

I am thinking of studying for the DPSI in health and becoming a qualified interpreter. I have some questions I hope you can answer:

1. Which are the best places to study the health DPSI (Arabic) in London? When I say best I mean in terms of training and the price of the course. Ideally, I don't want a very expensive course but I would like to get my training in a reputable place.

Hello Everyone

I am thinking of studying for the DPSI in health and becoming a qualified interpreter. I have some questions I hope you can answer:

1. Which are the best places to study the health DPSI (Arabic) in London? When I say best I mean in terms of training and the price of the course. Ideally, I don't want a very expensive course but I would like to get my training in a reputable place.

2. I would like to ask if is it possible to get a medical interpreting practice partner( Arabic/English) or interpreting practise group that are looking to improve their medical interpreting?

3. Does anyone have DPSI Arabic exam papers ?

4. Also, I am thinking of doing Community Interpreting level 3 before DPSI but I am not sure what are the best places in London?

If anyone has any idea about these courses or if anyone knows anybody who is interested in having a medical interpreting practise partner in both English and Arabic, please let me know.

Many thanks in advance ▲ Collapse
