What are the minimum certification and education requirements for working as a freelance/agency interpreter with Eaton Interpreting Services, Inc.?
It is expected that all interpreters working for EIS have completed an Interpreter Training Program. Most of our contracts require RID, NAD or NIC certification. There are only a limited number of settings when EIS can hire interpreters not yet certified. We also encourage a post secondary degree, but it is not mandated. All interpreters must be a member of RID. California’s K-12 regulations require RID / NAD / NIC certification or an EIPA or ESSE score of 4.0 or above. If an individual would like to work in the K-12 setting, the interpreter must have the above qualifications.
