§ 302. Registration.
All interpreters must register with the Interpreter Certification Program (ICP) by completing a registration form. Registration is free and indicates the interpreter’s willingness to become certified according to program guidelines. Sign language interpreters must also register with the Office for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing (ODHH) within the Department of Labor and Industry of the Commonwealth as required by the Sign Language Interpreter and Transliterator State Registration Act, 63 P.S. § § 1725.1 et seq. if they hold a Registry of Interpreters for the Deaf (RID) or National Association of the Deaf (NAD) certificate.
Comment Only registered interpreters who have attended an orientation workshop, passed the written examination, and passed all oral examinations required for their language of expertise can work in the Unified Judicial System (UJS). Registration forms are available on the Language Access & Interpreter Program page of the UJS website, http://www.pacourts.us.
