What accommodations are provided for examinees with limited English Proficiency?

Examinees with limited English proficiency may hire and pay for a qualified translator or interpreter to assist the proctor when taking an exam in a language not offered.

If a qualified translator cannot be secured, examinees may instead use a printed bilingual English-to-native language dictionary (e.g., English–Spanish) while taking the exam in English.

This type of dictionary does not require prior approval from the National Registry; however, the Test Administrator/Proctor must:

• Inspect the dictionary during the check-in process

• Report its use on the Incident Report Form
