Hey all. I wanted to revive this thread as I'm really interested in becoming an interpreter.

I'm going to Japan for a year in August so I hope to get a good grip on the language. But when I get back what should I do? Is there usually a interpreter training college or do I have to do a specific course/degree? I understand if you think it might be country-specific. I'm in England.

This is something that I've gotta lot of time to think about and prepare for, but I'd like to get a basic understanding of the steps needed so I can better get there.

Of course I want to do English and Japanese.

Thanks in advance!
