Due to its interdisciplinary nature, remote interpreting training has been studied from different theoretical and applied approaches in the past two decades. Research topics range from analyzing instructors’ and learners’ perspectives as members of a long-distance learning community to evaluating the effectiveness of tailored virtual learning environments (VLEs) in the development of interpreter’s skills. Findings reveal that socio-constructivist educational models such as student-centered environments and collaborative learning are not losing ground in virtual classes—in some cases they are even boosted by new technologies. Some regions in the world made the big technological leap into e-learning for the first time in 2020, amidst the COVID-19 pandemic and extended sanitary restrictions for on-site education. In this particular study’s case, the undergraduate program for Professional Translation and Interpreting (TIP) at Universidad Peruana de Ciencias Aplicadas (UPC), the transition to fully-remote interpreting training demanded a fast adaptation of the previously non-core VLE to one capable of enabling students to accomplish their courses’ learning objectives and teachers to replicate UPC teaching approaches. Through several personal interviews, this qualitative study looks into seven teachers’ experiences on the process of adapting one VLE to replicate, among other things, collaborative learning in each of the four interpreting courses in the TIP program during 2020. Through two separate focus groups, this paper also explores the perspective of fifteen students regarding the VLE and collaborative learning during the fully-remote education period.
