It is recommended that you do not interpret until you have your interpreting license in any professional environment that requires certified or licensed interpreters. This includes places such as courtrooms, hospitals, educational institutions, legal settings, and government agencies. These environments often have specific requirements and standards that interpreters must meet, including obtaining the necessary licenses, certifications, or qualifications. It is important to comply with these requirements to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the interpreting process and to protect the rights and well-being of the individuals involved.
