To enhance the quality of employment services for new immigrants and strengthen cross-language communication within the public service system, the Miaoli County Government is launching the 2026 Professional Training Program for New Immigrant Employment Service Interpreters. Through a structured training curriculum, this program aims to cultivate multilingual interpreting professionals who can provide more comprehensive support to new immigrants in their job search, employment, and adaptation to daily life.

In recent years, new immigrants have become an integral part of Miaoli County’s multicultural community. As the population continues to grow, demand for language support in areas such as employment services, public administration, and social welfare has also increased. To facilitate smoother communication between frontline service providers and new immigrants, this program offers specialized training courses covering interpreting skills, employment service procedures, basic concepts of employment laws and regulations, cross-cultural communication, and workplace ethics. The program is designed to develop interpreters with both professional competence and service-oriented skills.

This training is expected to develop 15 to 20 multilingual new immigrant interpreters, who may go on to serve in employment service centers, government agencies, and related public service settings, assisting with job consultations, career development, and workplace adaptation. The goal is to enhance the overall effectiveness and quality of services provided to new immigrants. The program will be held over three days: May 16 (Saturday), May 17 (Sunday), and May 23 (Saturday), from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM each day. Courses will be delivered by professional instructors to strengthen participants’ interpreting skills and service knowledge.

New immigrants are warmly invited to participate—register now! Spaces are limited and will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis. To register, please contact: Social Worker Cheng on 037-634428
