At the Interpreter Academy, our mission is to provide a comprehensive resource for certified interpreters. To achieve this, we offer tools and resources to help you become the best interpreter possible. Furthermore, we ensure you remain current and professional in your practice. Our goal is to help you excel in your career as an interpreter.
As a credentialed interpreter, you play a critical role in meeting the language needs of limited English proficient (LEP) patients. They often need your services when interacting with medical and social services providers. Ensuring compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, Americans with Disabilities Act, and Section 1557 of the Affordable Care Act is crucial. This compliance ensures that LEPs have access to qualified interpreting services and healthcare institutions provide certified interpreters.
Interpreter credentials provide validation for your profession and practice, and they offer many benefits to institutions. Compliance with the Joint Commission and federal law is ensured, and patients are more satisfied with their care. Additionally, credentialing reduces the liability of malpractice.
