How to become a certified medical interpreter: CCHI vs NBCMI

Hello! 👋 Welcome to Interprepedia!

Remember to 👍🏻 LIKE 👍🏻 and ✨ SUBSCRIBE ✨ to be the first to know when new videos are uploaded.

Not too long ago I became a dual-certified medical interpreter. I know how daunting the process can seem and all the doubts that fill our minds before we decide to take one of the most important steps in our careers.

I am here to put your mind at ease with a step-by-step detailed review and comparison of the process to get certified by the Certification Commission of Healthcare Interpreters or by the National Board for Certification of Healthcare Interpreters.

If you are going through this and have questions or doubts that I haven’t addressed in the video, feel free to leave a comment 📩

Enjoy!!! 🌹

Thank you Rosa. Although I am a certified healthcare interpreter working for a large HMO, there are other interpreters ion staff that are not certified. I think the way you have presented the information is easy to understand and compare. I will share this info with them.

This was the most informative video that compares both organizations and the exams so far. Thank you!

I've have been awarded my CMI by NBCMI! It has been a long process due to covid, surprises and learning. I am super excited for my new career.

I appreciate all the videos you and others like, Interpret Your World, have uploaded. They are very helpful. Thank you.

Rosa, this is a great video. Your presentation of this interesting topic is right on point. Simple, informative and precise, especially for the ones who don't know anything about this career. What I like the most about your videos is that you truly give the ins and outs of the process of becoming a medical interpreter. But more importantly, you encourage candidates to never give up if they feel it is their true calling. Congratulations!
