Please note: Due to the COVID-19 outbreak, we would encourage you to hold off on purchasing any travel arrangements in partnership with this course (but do still register as it's one of our most popular offerings!). NAI will make a final determination later in the fall as we know more and if we cancel, you will be fully refunded. Any questions? Reach out to Emily at ejacobs@interpnet.com.

Have you ever wondered how to be a better coach for your staff? Are you looking for new coaching tools such as language and methods to review your interpreters? Do you struggle with the difference between coaching and supervision? If so, this new 3-day workshop is for you!  Building upon the requests from our membership for more management skills training, NAI offers this course to give you a chance to both learn and hone your coaching skills.

During this course participants will study and practice skills including how to review a program, coaching styles and preferences and giving verbal feedback.  Throughout the offering, participants will take part in practicums designed to put new skills into practice, including coaching live interpreters.
