Overview

Within this Conference Interpreting course from London Metropolitan University you’ll gain practical experience in their state-of-the-art interpreting suite, which has the same technology as those used by renowned international institutions such as the EU and the UN. Plus you’ll have opportunities to learn outside of the classroom on guided trips around London and possibilities to travel internationally to visit places such as the United Nations in Geneva, the Court of Justice of the European Union in Luxembourg, or the European Commission in Brussels.

Quick Facts:

Their expertise in innovative technology is key to this course. They’ve developed partnerships with external organisations that provide opportunities for remote interpreting practice, meaning you’ll gain experience of using online interpreting platforms too.

Career opportunities:

Conference interpreters are highly sought after around the world, and you could go on to work at intergovernmental organisations such as the European Union or United Nations, for either face to face, hybrid or remote interpreting assignments.
Working as a freelancer is a popular choice for interpreters, but you could also work for an agency, private company, international organisation, governments or an educational institution for either face to face, hybrid or remote interpreting assignments. You could also advance to our Conference Interpreting MA in order to gain a highly-regarded master’s degree.
