Liaison Interpreting Theory and Practice

In conjunction with the Liaison Interpreting Contexts (Systems, Culture and Ethics), this micro-credential will develop the practical introductory skills you need to work effectively as a liaison interpreter in the community and some specialised settings. 

Please note for MBIE funding and NAATI Certification:

  • For students who have MBIE entitlement notices, applications for study in Semester 2 2024 and Semester 1 2025 need to have been made by 2 April 2024 for funding eligibility.
  • Please note micro-credentials are not eligible for Study link loans and allowances.

Language interpreters are in demand in various settings, including community, legal and health. Our micro-credentials in liaison interpreting are designed to be condensed in format and timeframe – giving you the introductory skills you need to move into the workplace quickly.

To work effectively as a liaison interpreter in Aotearoa, you must complete our micro-credentials: Liaison Interpreting Theory and Practice and Liaison Interpreting Contexts (Systems, Culture and Ethics).  

Using your competency in more than one language, you’ll build the specific set of skills and knowledge that liaison interpreters and translators require to work in community, medical, legal and business settings for New Zealand government departments and agencies such as Immigration NZ, Auckland Council, MBIE and community organisations.
