Medical Interpreter Competency Examination


Examination Description:

At this time, there is no nationally recognized credential for medical interpreters, and very few medical interpreter assessment options at all.

Yet, it is more important than ever for employers to be able to assess an interpreter’s ability to ensure that the federal requirements are being met and clients are receiving the treatment they deserve.

The Medical Interpreter Competency Examination allows employers to show that they take the needs of there client with limited proficiency in English seriously, and are doing all they can to ensure both equality and excellence.

The MICE covers:
  • Consecutive Interpretation
  • Anatomy and Physiology
  • Medical Terminology
  • Interpreter Ethics
  • Sight Translation
