Alabama Board-Interpreters
The Alabama Board-Interpreters in Montgomery, AL is responsible for overseeing the licensure and certification of interpreters and transliterators in the state. They require individuals to achieve a score of 4.0 or higher on the Educational Interpreter Performance Assessment (EIPA) and pass a written exam to qualify for a license. They also offer permits for those who score between 3.0-3.9 on the EIPA. The board reviews exemption requests on a case-by-case basis and penalties are imposed for practicing without a license or permit.
The board's mission is to ensure the provision of quality interpreting and transliterating services for both hearing and deaf consumers in Alabama. By requiring licensure and certification, they aim to protect the interests of both the hiring agencies and the deaf individuals. Obtaining licensure and certification also serves as a measure of professionalism for interpreters, providing assurance of their skills and qualifications.
