IDHHC 2018 Interpreter Confererence - Registration NOW OPEN
2018 Conference Registration
Under the Interpreter for the Deaf Act of 2007, interpreters are required to have a license to provide interpreting services after January 1, 2009, unless an exemption applies. Interpreter licenses are based on proficiency levels. The proficiency levels determine which interpreting assignments an interpreter can accept.
The purpose of the IL BEI interpreter testing and certification process is to provide certification options to Illinois interpreters. The certification tests are both proficiency-based and criterion-referenced evaluations.
If you have questions regarding the Interpreters for the Deaf Licensure Act of 2007 or its rules, please contactdhh.interpreter@illinois.gov.
