Most Divisions have discussion groups, publications, special tracks at the conference, and opportunities for members to participate in leadership for voting members.<\/li>\n
  6. Recognition.<\/strong> Those who qualify for the Credentialed Interpreter (CI) designation<\/a> are automatically voting members. As a CI, clients can select interpreters by verified qualifications. Some are finding work this way.<\/li>\n
  7. Voting<\/strong> members are able to participate in leadership. ATA members can participate in committees and leadership councils. Voting members can also have a say in the decisions the Association makes.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    ATA serves its members year-round, not just at the conference! As leaders of the ATA Interpreters Division, we look for ways to serve our members every day. Our Leadership Council stands ready to support all members of the ATA Interpreters Division with their concerns.<\/p>\n

    Yours,<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
