What to know about Interpreters
Interpreting is the spoken half of the language professions, and in Australia it is credentialled by the same national body that certifies translators. NAATI describes the split plainly: translators deal with the written word, interpreters deal with the spoken word or with signed languages such as Auslan. The credential structure, the three-year expiry and the public directory all work the same way, and the certified translators guide sets that machinery out in detail.
