Major Duties

Interpreter I:

Under general supervision, the Interpreter I provides interpreting services to facilitate communication most often in a classroom or related instruction settings and activities. Assignments may involve technical or specialized subject matter and vocabulary. Individual assignments may vary based on the specific skills of the interpreter and the needs of students or other consumers. More difficult tasks may involve interpreting technical or specialized subject matter and vocabulary, which require using specialized signs, accommodating consumer requests for varied language preferences, and interpreting fast-spoken material. Specific complexity and skill factors include:

• Type of interpreting or communication system needed;
• Difficulty or unique nature of the subject matter and vocabulary;
• Speed of interpreting required;
• Number of Deaf and/or Hard-of-Hearing consumers served simultaneously.
• Performs other duties as assigned.

Interpreter II A/B:

The Interpreter II is distinguished from the Interpreter I by performing more complex assignments requiring a combination of higher levels of training, skills, certification, and experience.  Assignments for the Interpreter II often involve high levels of interactive discussions requiring the interpreter to rapidly switch between spoken English and sign language or manual sign system and vice versa. These assignments may include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Advanced level or highly complex classes requiring significant and rapid interaction using highly technical or specialized subject matter and vocabulary;
• Discussion situations in classrooms, conferences, and workshops involving advanced and/or complex topics requiring significant sigh-to-voice and voice-to-sigh translations;
• More complex interpreting situations such as conferences, workshops, seminars, theatrical, and/or other platform settings where multiple consumers, including students, faculty, and staff are served simultaneously.
• Performs other duties as assigned.

To provide Deaf or Hard-of-Hearing students the same access to instruction provided for hearing students (taking into consideration language and cultural differences), the skilled Interpreter II adapts terminology, language, instruction, concept, theory, and emotion to convey all aspects of the lecture, teaching material, and experiences.  Classes or seminars taught with specialized vocabulary, ideas, or concepts can be relayed successfully to the student only if the interpreter knows the complex subject matter to a degree that provides for fluent, accurate, and specific translation in the language mode that the Deaf or Hard-of-Hearing consumer can understand readily.  Performs other duties as assigned.
