- Abstract:
- An overview, with photographs and descriptions of the Translation & Interpretation Program at the Puget Sound Skills Center (PSSC) in Burien (Washington), a CTE (Career and Technical Education) program for high school heritage language speakers interested in exploring how language skills might help others communicate. The program is language neutral, includes learning about interpreting and translating, and features service learning components. Outcomes include improved language skills, articulation credits, higher graduation rates, and in some cases, professional interpreter certification.
