Q: How Do You Find a Qualified, Certified Sign Language / ASL Interpreter?
- Hi, Kara here from Pretty In Pink Interpreting in Austin, Tx...
- And I know that finding a great interpreter for a deaf client - while sometimes in rush for a last minute appointment - can be a bit of a stressful process, so I wanted to make it as simple as possible for you in this video...
- I'm going to tell you what makes a qualified interpreter so you know exactly what to look for, as well as the easiest way to find one that'll make serving your clients a comfortable and enjoyable process.
- So, reputable agencies will typically have respected and qualified interpreters.
- That means that they'll have one or more recognized certifications - which vary by geographic area - a 2 or 4 year intensive degree, and they'll be attending interpreting workshops regularly.
- Obviously, the more certifications and education an interpreter has, the more qualified.
- So, the easiest way to find a qualified interpreter is just to search Google for "sign language interpreter wherever you live."
- Then, simply check out the websites of the top few results on Google, and see if they list their qualifications in an easy to find area, and have testimonials proving their ability.
- For example, our Pretty in Pink website clearly lists my background including my 4 yr degree, certifications, and workshops I've attended, has several testimonials from respected people in the deaf community, and has a clear and simple way to reach out for an appointment.
- You can usually get an idea of whether they'll be a good fit from their website.
- Now, a good interpreter will not only be able to facilitate effective communication between you and your client - they'll also be skilled at making it a comfortable and enjoyable experience - so you can keep your clients coming back.
