Court Translating and Interpreting
Court Interpreting Training Workshops
If you want to work as an interpreter in Tennessee State Courts, you must be Certified (or Registered if there is no certification in your language) by the Tennessee Administrative Office of the Courts.
DON’T MISS THIS OPPORTUNITY to begin the process of becoming a TN State Court Certified or Registered Interpreter!
Description of available classes:
Court Interpreting classes are available in person and via Zoom; both formats are acceptable as the first step in becoming a Tennessee State Certified Court interpreter.
Please be aware that these “orientation” workshops do NOT provide any kind of certification for you – they are the required FIRST STEP to entering into the Certification process.
In-person classes will consist of 14 hours of weekend instruction in a classroom environment and shall include a special manual containing information you need to pass the certification exams.
Zoom classes will consist of six 2.5-hour sessions on weekday evenings (Monday, Wednesday and Friday nights), with an electronic manual, breakout group-work and light homework in between classes.
