Conduct of Tests
It is not possible to simulate perfectly in a test the conditions under which an interpreter would normally
work. Nevertheless, NAATI conducts its tests in a way that is fair and equitable to all candidates.
Accordingly, all interpreting tests are conducted from a master recording of the test which is played to
the candidate in the presence of a supervisor only, and the candidate’s responses are recorded for later
marking. Interpreting tests are therefore conducted individually.The use of dictionaries and other reference aides is not permitted in Paraprofessional Interpreter tests.

Part One: Social and Cultural Awareness and Ethics of the Profession Questions
These sections will be completed based on written questions and written answers, (instead of the oral questions and answers previously conducted). The written test for these questions will take 1½ hours to complete. All questions will be asked in English and candidates will be able to choose the language (English or Hazaragi/Chinese/Vietnamese) in which they write their responses. Candidates will be notified of the date and time of their written test, which will occur on the same day or the day before the oral testing session.Part Two: Dialogue Interpreting
This part will be conducted under similar conditions as previously, with recorded materials being played back to candidates to interpret. All responses will be recorded. However, due to issues that have arisen with unauthorised publication of accreditation test materials on the internet the following additional conditions will be applied:
a) all candidates will be required to arrive for the test at the same time
b) all candidates will be asked to wait in a separate waiting room, until they are required for their test
c) candidates will not be able to leave the venue until their test has been conducted: if they do leave they will not be permitted to return to complete their test. Some candidates may have to wait an extended period of time, with testing being conducted from 9am until 4pm in some locations
d) all candidates should be prepared with food and drink as they may have to wait extended periods of time until their test can be conducted. NAATI will ensure that candidates are able to have a place to eat during the day
e) the waiting room will have seating and access to toilet facilities
f) no access to electronic communication devices (including cell phones, laptops, PDA’s,Tablets) will be allowed. Any candidate found with such a device will have their test cancelled.
g) candidates will be allowed to talk amongst themselves
h) access to written preparation or other materials including books will be allowed
i) there may be other restrictions that have to be put in place due to the nature of the venues used in different states. All candidates will be advised of these conditions on the day
j) the individual(s) appointed by NAATI to supervise the waiting room will have the final say in relation to acceptable conduct within the room. If any candidate is unsure if a behaviour is acceptable, they should discuss this with the supervising
officer or a NAATI staff member. If candidates cannot comply with the conditions stated above, NAATI will be unable to test them.
