For many people, the end of the year means holiday shopping, get-togethers, and eating lots of food.  For certified interpreters, however, continuing education requirements can make this time of year stressful. We here at Interpreter Education Online don't want you to worry.  Because  if you're looking for an efficient and convenient way to satisfy your CE requirements, then IEO's courses are just what you need.  IEO's courses are approved by a number of states and organizations.  Visit our CEU page for more information.

Preparing for a certification test?  This time of year is also important for those aren't certified.  Since many certification exams are administered in January and February, now is the ideal time for certification exam preparation.  Whether you're a medical or legal interpreter, IEO has the courses that will help you get ready for your exam.

Nigeria: Top 10 Peculiar Salutations in Local English
