Are you applying for ACI Medical and/or Legal Specialization? Are you having a hard time getting documentation of your hours of interpreting experience? We are here to help!
We are delighted by the number of interpreters who have applied, not just for the qualification of Accredited Community Interpreter (ACI), but also for ACI Legal and/or Medical Specialization. One of the requirements for specialization is documentation of experience interpreting in those settings, and it is the agencies or Interpretation Service Providers (ISPs) who can provide such documentation.
In order to support interpreters applying for specialization, we have produced a letter that applicants can provide to Interpretation Service Providers when requesting documentation of interpretation experience hours in legal and/or medical settings.
Click here to download the letter for ISPs to support your request for documentation of hours.
