dc.description.abstract	The purpose of this report is to present information to assist in evaluating the need for a Sign Language Interpreter Program at Oakland Community College. There seems to be a consensus of opinion among experts in the field of interpreting that a four-year program is desirable. This program would offer a two-year Sign Language Studies program along with a two-year Interpreter Training Program (ITP) to go hand in hand. After completing the program, the student will be ready to obtain RID certification or QA qualification and be prepared for employment.	en_US
