can transform any conference into a world-class event. We realize
that it is essential that you provide your attendees with the best
interpretation possible. To that end, we only work with the finest and
most knowledgeable conference interpreters locally and
internationally. There are two classes of conference interpretation:
simultaneous and consecutive.
Simultaneous interpreting is the process of interpreting one language
into another at the same time as the presenter is speaking. This type
of interpretation is best suited for professional conferences,
presentations and theatrical events. The audience is provided with a
small headset or earpiece that receives the interpretation via radio
or infrared waves. If more than one language is being interpreted, the
audience may shift between languages. Please keep in mind that a
minimum of two interpreters per language is needed for this sort of
interpretation. Each interpreter works in shifts of approximately
twenty minutes. This method allows the presenter to speak at a normal
pace.
Consecutive interpreting is
a method which allows the presenter to speak for a short period of
time, usually less than a minute. Then the interpretation is rendered
into the target language. This type of interpretation is best for
one-on-one situations or small group situations, short presentations
and telephone interpreting. The time required to render the
interpretation is generally as long as, or longer than, the original
message. Remember to factor in this additional time when determining
the time required for such a presentation.
