OCCI Ontario Council on Community Interpreting

Interpretation Service Providers (ISPs) are organizations that coordinate the provision of interpretation services with clients and interpreters.  

 

ISPs are responsible both to their clients and to the interpreters they contract or employ.  The quality and service standards that ISPs are expected to uphold are defined in the National Standard Guide for Community Interpreting Services.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The OCCI encourages ISPs to stay informed on the development of the standardized accreditation framework. (Click here to see the OCCI's tiers of accreditation.)
