Career and Education Landscape
Among factors driving the growing demand for translation services are increasing globalization and immigration, as well as federal laws governing the provision of services to all people regardless of race, color or national origin.
In the United States, persons with limited English proficiency are entitled to language assistance in a variety of circumstances and settings. Hospitals and court systems, for instance, must provide limited English proficiency individuals with written and other communication in their language.
Though businesses may not be required to translate written material, effective communication with employees, vendors, customers and others is necessary for operating in the global marketplace as well as in many local and national markets, and can have an enormous impact on profitability.
联邦政府并不要求翻译人员获得认证或执照，尽管它确实要求翻译许多文件，包括结婚证、选民登记表、私人合同和学术记录。公共和私营部门的雇主都对聘用合格的翻译人员提出了自己的要求。美国劳工统计局报告说:“(翻译和口译的)工作前景应该最适合那些有专业证书的人。”
