UC ANR Interpretation and Translation Services

In support of our employees and program participants who may require reasonable language accommodations, we are delighted to announce that UC ANR Human Resources has established agreements with new vendors to enhance our interpretation and translation services. This will enhance our ability to support units/departments, organizations and programs hosting UC ANR-sponsored events and providing information. Our aim is to ensure that our services and communications are accessible and inclusive, fostering an environment where our employees and participants can engage fully and meaningfully.

Translation involves converting text from one language to another while preserving the meaning, whereas interpretation involves conveying spoken words or signs from one language to another in real-time or after a brief pause. Translation is typically written, while interpretation is usually spoken or signed.

Please review our Interpretation and Translation Services Support site for additional information on process, contact information and fees.
