She took the Continuing Education Department’s Multicultural/Multilingual Medical Interpretation course at Central Connecticut State University in 2015 in hopes of it helping her in her quest for a career change. Ms. Ortiz wants to use her native language to help others in the community, and the course helped her begin that goal and to enter the medical field. She stated that the course opened doors for her that she never even knew existed, and thanks Professor Shirley Rojas for her mentoring and instruction in the MMMI course. MMMI is a hybrid course that is taught in English, and it allows students to become a Certified Medical Interpreter.
