Level 3 Interpreting in the Community students at Bradford College recently gained valuable industry insights during a special guest session with Liz Weatherill, Managing Director of Translate One – Bradford’s largest interpreting agency.
The session was part of the wider curriculum designed to prepare students for employment in the interpreting sector. Liz Weatherill shared her expertise on the nature of interpreting work, the recruitment process at Translate One, and the types of assignments interpreters may encounter in the field.

The session helped strengthen professional links between Bradford College and Translate One, as well as reflects the College’s commitment to providing real-world learning experience and preparing students for enriching careers in community focused sectors.
