<h2><span lang="EN-US">Introduction</span></h2>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Tahoma;"><o:p></o:p>Based on recently applicable legislation, many health care plans in California and the US will need to translate a number of documents that previously did not require translation. The demand for Spanish translation and interpreting has increased as of the second half of 2008, and is expected to continue increasing. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p align="center" class="MsoNormal"> <span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Tahoma;"> <font color="#800000" style="font-size: 17pt; font-weight: 700;">This seminar is the continuation of the 1<sup>st</sup> Specialization Seminar, and we expect to </font></span></p>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Tahoma;"> <font color="#800000" style="font-size: 17pt; font-weight: 700;">cover anything that was not included in the previous seminar. </font></span> <strong><em><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial;"><br clear="all" style="page-break-before: always;" />
</span></em></strong>
<h2><span lang="EN-US">Purpose</span></h2>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Tahoma;">The purpose of this seminar is to quickly review what we learned in the past seminar, learn about new developments, and review specific examples of texts for translation in-depth, understand possible problems and solutions, and discuss the preferred terminology and style. The audience will have the chance to participate in the review of samples and cases from the real world.<br />
<o:p><br />
After the seminar, students and recently graduated translators will have insight and valued practice in this area. Experienced translators and editors will also benefit from this continuing education opportunity. <o:p></o:p></o:p></span></p>

<h2><span lang="EN-US">Attendees</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Tahoma;"><o:p></o:p></span></h2>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Tahoma;">This seminar is for graduate free-lance translators and editors, and university students in their senior year in Translation. Staff translators and editors from translation companies are also welcome. Project coordinators and project managers will benefit from insight into the kinds of documents that will be translated.<br />
<o:p> </o:p></span><br />
<strong><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Tahoma;">We welcome all questions and suggestions on topics of interest before the seminar, so we can provide answers during the session.<o:p></o:p></span></strong></p>

<h2><span lang="EN-US">Learning Objectives</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Tahoma;"><o:p> <br />
</o:p></span></h2>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Tahoma;">Attendees will review information about how the health care system works in the <st1:country-region w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">United States</st1:place></st1:country-region>, who are the translation requestors, and who are the translation users. Attendees will also be able to participate in an extensive review of real life cases to learn about the different kinds of documents that usually need translation, common errors in translation, specific client preferences as regards style and terminology, and regional differences among the Hispanic populations.<br />
<o:p> </o:p><br />
Clients are now more interested in continuing education for linguists and translator certifications. Translators who are trained and have relevant certifications will have an advantage in the health care area.<br />
<o:p> </o:p><br />
Don’t miss the chance to master translation for the health care area!!<o:p><br />
