Please join us for our “fresh out of the oven” podcast with John Arroyave, Director of Cross Cultural Communications (CCC), the only international training agency in the United States for medical and community interpreting, cultural competence and language access.

Fabiola and John discussed the controversial topic of artificial intelligence and its effects on the interpreting profession, agreed on core essentials for becoming a skilled and empowered interpreter, and tackled a notion of communicative autonomy that each and every language professional needs and deserves.

Join us for a mission-driven and energy-infused conversation about challenges and opportunities John and Fabiola see in the professional development within the interpreting field.
