Translation and Interpretation ServicesThe Center for Interpretation and Translation Studies is not a service provider. However, because of our visibility in the community and accessibility, we often receive inquiries from individuals and organizations that need translation and interpretation services. Together with leading training programs from around the country, we have drafted the following statement to better inform both those seeking interpretation and translation services, and those seeking education in this dynamic field.
