Legal Interpreter Certificate Training For Bilingual Portuguese Speakers
Legal interpreter certificate training is a fantastic career change opportunity for bilingual adults, who are fluent in Portuguese and English; especially for those who want to make a difference. A legal interpreter is someone who translates for non-English speakers during legal proceedings (think immigration hearings, depositions, citizenship proceedings etc). They are called to work for a person who is Limited English Proficient (LEP) because that person only speaks Portuguese. Legal interpreters primarily work in a courtroom or legal office, and they must translate everything that is said from English to Portuguese- so their client can understand- and from Portuguese to English - so the courtroom can understand. Legal interpreting might seem like an easy profession for someone who is fluent in both languages, but it takes a lot of skill and practice to do it correctly every single time. Here's what you can expect from legal interpreter certificate training...
