Each industry, seeking to serve the public, is potentially in need of interpreters and/or translators. For example, in a school an interpreter may be needed to be present at school orientations and parent-teacher conferences. A translator may be needed to rewrite forms and coorespondences to parents in their native language. In court rooms, a interpreter will need to be present for hearings for non-native speakers. A language interpreter must quickly comprehend and translate the speaker's words into another language, and go back and forth between languages with ease. It is important that the interpreter or translator get the meaning and the tone correct, so that the message is relayed as intended.

Sometimes the employing agency may require certification or a test to determine accuracy.

What course can you make to qualifies for interpreting jobs?
You take courses in the language for which you wish to be a translator. If, for example, you wished to be a translator of German, you would take courses in the German language (assuming, of course, that your native language was not German). Some employers of translators will accept some specific level of post secondary education in a foreign language as a qualification for the job, and some will accept a certification from certain agencies or organizations. For example, the US military certifies persons as linguists in specific languages, and assigns a numerical rating which indicates how proficient the individual is, all the way up to "native speaker". However, while most employers will accept education and/or an accepted certification in order for an individual to be considered for a job as a translator, most will also demand that the applicant take an examination to demonstrate proficiency prior to being actually hired. Another way to qualify to work as a translator is to move to a country other than your native country and, either before or after moving, become proficient in that country's language. For example, if a person whose native language was English were living in Germany, and he was proficient in the German language, he could become a translator of English into German, as well as the reverse.
