The Administrators and the members of the Leadership Council invite the members of the ATA Interpreters Division to join us in a conference call. We will report on the work we have done, let you know about our current projects, and listen to your feedback.<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
We launched\u00a0Interpreter Connections<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0(see below), a series of in-person gatherings of local interpreters across the country. We also want our Leadership team to meet with you.<\/div>\n

Credentialed Interpreters Update<\/strong><\/h4>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
Interpreters who are listed as Credentialed Interpreter (CI) on the ATA directory are getting calls for jobs. They will automatically become ATA voting members as of the next election, and get a Credentialed ribbon at the conference. To vote in the next election, you must have updated your status to voting member one month before the election. Please register for the CI designation promptly, because it takes a bit of time to process it. The details are here:<\/div>\n
