CPD for interpreters

Interpreters have the same CPD requirement as translators. Interpreting practice sessions and terminology preparation for assignments count as unstructured CPD.

Interpreting workshops

The Public Service Interpreting network runs 3-hour practice workshops every two months. They count as structured CPD.

Good to know

• A one-hour webinar counts as 1 hour of structured CPD, even if you watch the recording.
• The CPD log locks on 30 September. Activities after that go into the next year.
• Interpreters can count assignment preparation as unstructured CPD, up to 5 hours a year.
