What is the State Court Interpreter Certification Consortium and what other types of foreign language interpreter certification does Virginia accept?
The Judicial Council of Virginia considers presumptively eligible any person who has successfully completed the full requirements for federal court certification or certification by a state judicial system participating in the State Court Interpreter Certification Consortium administered by the National Center for State Courts. Please visit the Consortium’s website at www.ncsconline.org for additional information. Eligible persons who provide required documentation may be added to Virginia’s list of certified Arabic, Korean, Spanish and Vietnamese language interpreters.
