The Exam
As a candidate, you must have knowledge of the areas central to the work of a court interpreter at the level of a minimally qualified court interpreter. These are
1
Familiarity with the terminology and procedures of the court system. For this, the written examination measures recognition of common court-related situations and vocabulary, specially in the area of criminal courts.
2
A high degree of proficiency in the English language. The written examination tests the candidate's level of English vocabulary at an SAT/GRE level, and assesses, through a vast array of idioms, the cultural riches of the language.
3
A general understanding of standards guiding the performance of duties, which include knowledge of ethical behavior and professional conduct.
