The "Orientation Workshop" is the first required step for the Nevada Court Interpreter Certification/ Registration. The workshop is followed by an oral examination (applicable for Spanish language only at this time).
The next "Orientation Workshop" will be held in January 2008 in Las Vegas and Carson City (see Registration Form for pertinent dates for both locations). The workshop will cover fundamentals of court interpretation as well as an introduction to Nevada's court system. The written exam provided by the Consortium for State Court Interpreting is administered at the conclusion of the workshop. A minimum passing score of 80% is required in order to take the oral exam, or to become a registered interpreter. The Orientation Workshop and written examination will take place over 2-1/2 days. The workshop will be provided from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., with a 1-hour lunch break and two 15- minute breaks (one in the morning and one in the afternoon) for the first two days. On the third day, a written examination will be administered from 9 a.m. through noon. Please note the registration deadline. Nevada residents will be given first preference, as seating is limited. No registration form will be accepted after January 4, 2008. If an individual is interested in retaking the written examination only, he/she needs to contact Ms. Andrea Krlickova via e-mail at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
