The ATA Chronicle | May/June 2018

I was impressed by the fact that the
conference website had a tab called
"Educational Credits" that led to a
page listing the per-session credit
hours that had been pre-approved
by the Certification Commission for
Healthcare Interpreters, International
Medical Interpreters Association,
and the State of Florida for
professionals certified by those
bodies. Certified ATA members
received the maximum of 10 continuing
education points for attending the
entire conference. Attendees' name badge
holders contained paper "passports"
with all the sessions listed on them.
