Interpreter Credentials

CLI-Credentialed Language Interpreters

Our language interpreters undergo an extensive credentialing program, and must pass examinations with test scores of no less than 90% before becoming an official Certified Languages International interpreter. All CLI language interpreters are based in the U.S. to ensure both an accurate interpretation and a cultural awareness of meaning.

In addition, CLI language interpreters complete additional training in their language and industry specialty. All interpreter training activity is continually monitored by Certified Languages International supervisors.

CLI-Credentialed Language Interpreters Receive Customer Service Training, Too!

All CLI language interpreters undergo an extensive customer service orientation to assure they uphold the service standards our customers expect from CLI. Our phone interpreters appreciate working with CLI’s customer service operators, who answer your calls live 7 days a week, 24 hours a day.

“I want to let you know how much I appreciate and enjoy working for Certified Languages International. The operators are all extremely friendly and polite, and are a pleasure to work with. I used to work for another telephonic interpreting company, and everything was automated. The personal touch of a live operator really makes Certified Languages International stand out.”
