NOTES:
INTERPRETER: Professional Interpreters for the Deaf generally aspire
to obtain national interpreter certification from the Registry of
Interpreters for the Deaf. It usually takes several years of study and
practice before you are ready to interpret professionally. If you want to
become a certified interpreter you should expect to put in around 900
classroom-seat-time hours (or about 60 semester-credit units), several
thousand hours of general signing practice (chatting with Deaf and/or
skilled signers), as well as a couple hundred hours of mentored practice
interpreting. You will need to pass a written test regarding ethics and
professional conventions as well as a performance test.
