NAATI

NAATI is a standards organisation responsible for setting, maintaining and promoting high professional standards. We are a company that is jointly owned by the nine state and territory governments of Australia who appoint our Board of Directors. Our mission, as outlined in the NAATI Constitution, is to set and maintain high national standards in translating and interpreting to enable the existence of a pool of accredited translators and interpreters responsive to the changing needs and demography of the Australian community. Our core focus is issuing accreditations for practitioners who wish to work as translators and interpreters in Australia. Our aim is to be a respected and recognised global leader in the provision of certification services for translators and interpreters. NAATI's work enhances the translation and interpreting industry’s competitiveness and contributes to a community demand for everyone to be able to communicate and interact with each other.
