Are you ready to be a licensed court interpreter?

Are you interested in becoming a licensed Texas court interpreter?

Finally, he will cover the written and oral exams themselves, and how to find work once you are licensed. Questions are welcome!

This webinar will be presented in English and is not language-specific.
