What types of jobs can I do in translating and interpreting?
There is a difference between translator and interpreter. Essentially, translators translate writing and text. The role of a language interpreter is to translate spoken language in real time.
Unfortunately, we don’t offer courses in translation at TAFE NSW but we do offer the Diploma of Interpreting. This diploma prepares you for interpreter jobs in health, welfare and community services, education and social settings and tourism. You’ll also be ready to use your skills in community information services, informal business and workplace interactions and in non-complex disability assistance.
