In order to acquire the necessary skills as a trainer, I completed two tracks: 

• I am a TAP certified trainer

• I have a Master of Advanced Studies in Interpreter Training from the University of Geneva

I put together courses on technology for interpreters and remote interpreting which continue to evolve and which I continue to deliver in different parts of the world in-person and remotely.

My work in this field was recognised by the American Translators Association which awarded me the Innovation Award in 2022. 

"When the pandemic struck in 2020, one of the areas of our profession that was hit the hardest was conference interpreting. With the increased reliance on technology brought about by remote work, Maha developed a variety of training courses on remote simultaneous interpreting in response to emerging needs. These courses provided interpreters with the necessary skills to use online interpreting platforms with confidence. She also highlighted new tools and technologies that interpreters could use during assignments. Maha's creative way of thinking enabled many interpreters to generate income during the pandemic as they learned new skills that helped them continue working remotely."

Past Online Training

Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, I have trained hundreds of interpreters on remote interpreting and other skills. These are some of the online training workshops.
