Welcome to Bridging the Gap Bridging the Gap was originally developed as a training program for medical interpreters in the 1990s. Since then, the training has prepared thousands of committed interpreters. Today, medical interpreting has become a recognized profession. Health care providers appreciate that they can do a better and safer job of caring for patients when there is good language support and culture brokering available. For a description of our Bridging the Gap class and Training of Trainers class, click here. Bridging the Gap training schedule for 2008 Currently, we are accepting applications for open enrollment training scheduled for June 2008 in Seattle, WA.
