The core focus of the company is issuing certification for practitioners who wish to work as translators and interpreters in Australia.
NAATI certification provides quality assurance to the consumers of translators and interpreting services and gives credibility to agencies that engage certified practitioners.
While these accreditation credentials do not have all the benefits of the new NAATI certification scheme and are not subject to its revalidation requirements,[1] they do remain valid.
This generally occurs in very low demand languages where NAATI offers neither certification nor recognised practising status.
The members of NAATI are the nine ministers who are responsible for multicultural affairs and/or citizenship in the Commonwealth, State and Territory governments.
NAATI provides eight key services to assist people to gain and maintain a credential to work as a translator or interpreter in Australia.
