The Qualified IEP Interpreters Registry is intended to support districts in facilitating the parent's understanding of and participation in the proceedings at a meeting, including arranging for and covering the expense of a qualified interpreter, as described in Illinois Administrative Code section 226.800(k), for parents whose preferred language is other than English. Listings of persons included in the Registry have been prepared from application information obtained directly from each spoken-language interpreter. The current designation of persons listed has been verified by project personnel prior to listing. Sign Language Interpreters are not included in this registry.
This registry does not intend to qualify, rank, or otherwise indicate the quality of service provided by individuals. Registry verification merely indicates that the individual has met the appropriate State requirements for designation. Further verification of interpreters is the responsibility of the registry user, relative to the quality of service provided.
Further, the Illinois State Board of Education is not responsible for payment of fees for the interpreter or for the determination of appropriate costs of service. Fees are determined by the current rates used within the local school district or by joint agreement.
