DPSI Law Exam
A high level of fluency and excellent writing skills in both English and the language of application are required to succeed in the exams. While the DPSI Law exam can be quite tough and demanding, successful candidates gain full access to the entire UK public service interpreting market, having acquired a highly-regarded, nationally-recognised professional qualification. Rare languages are also in high demand in public services, but qualifications in such languages have been historically difficult to achieve, or simply not available in the UK. So since 2012 we have been offering the DPSI Law preparatory courses specifically geared towards rare languages. Having trained almost 800 students since 2009 we will be offering training to candidates on the NRPSI ‘Rare Language’ and ‘Interim B’ categories so they can finally become fully DPSI-qualified interpreters (see the NRPSI announcement).
