These workshops are intended for Educational
Interpreters

the New York State Education Department. To take workshops,
Interpreters
must have taken one or both of the EIKA and EIPA at one of our four
Regional
Sites. They are free of charge to Educational Interpreters who
work
within New York State and are intended to provide training toward
knowledge
and performance competencies as stated by their Prescriptive Plans.
No workshops are currently
scheduled. Contact your Regional Site Coordinator to request a
workshop, or to inform your Regional Site Coordinator of planned
Superintendant's Conference Days in your area.
