Red River College Polytechnic has launched a modernized American Sign Language–English Interpretation Advanced Diploma Program with support from the Government of Manitoba. The updated three-year program emphasizes ASL fluency, Deaf history and culture, and work-integrated learning to prepare students for interpreter roles in schools, postsecondary institutions, and social services. Program changes also include revised admissions criteria, expanded simulation spaces, and the integration of Indigenous ways of knowing. “This new advanced diploma will have benefits to the community,” said RRC Polytech Acting VP Academic Aileen Najduch. The first intake will begin in Fall 2025.
