The Court Interpreters Program (CIP) of the Judicial Council of California (Judicial Council) oversees the testing, certification and registration process for statewide qualification of court interpreters, as well as other administrative functions such as statewide recruitment, and statewide data collection and analysis.  The CIP staff works to increase access to the trial courts for non-English speaking persons by improving the quality of interpreting and increasing the number and availability of certified and registered interpreters in the trial courts. CIP services include interpreter recruitment, certification or registration, education and compliance.  The Judicial Council is looking for a third party Court Interpreter Exam Administration and Development company to help the former achieve the aforementioned purposes.
