Workshops & Trainings

Summer Institute

Every year, EIP provides a four-day conference during the summer for educational interpreters. The conference is free for everyone and CEUs will be provided! A variety of different presenters are invited to present at Summer Institute. Topics and group selection cater to the interpreters background, so every day will be something new and skill appropriate. There will be three tracks at the 2026 Summer Institute: Newbies, On the way to certification, and Certified. The EIP Coordinator is very flexible about placing interpreters into grouping, so please feel free to reach out with any concerns. Summer Institute is always fun and full of information for all, see you there!

July 28-31 2026

Workshops will be held in the Communication Sciences & Disorders building (exact location information to come). Make sure to park near both buildings. Please try to carpool if possible, as there will be limited parking.
