Company Description
The Regulatory Centre for Irish Sign Language Interpreters Ireland (RISLI) is the national body that safeguards the quality and integrity of Irish Sign Language (ISL) interpreting. By maintaining a standards-based registration system, RISLI ensures that only qualified interpreters are listed, providing vital protection for the Deaf community and for organisations that require reliable ISL services. The centre also offers a public "Find an Interpreter" service, making it easy for individuals, courts and public bodies to connect with vetted professionals.
RISLI's core activities include managing the register of ISL interpreters, overseeing qualifications, and supporting ongoing professional development and work-practice requirements. It provides clear guidance on joining and staying on the register, and runs policy consultations to keep its standards aligned with the Irish Sign Language Act 2017. Serving clients across Ireland, RISLI plays a pivotal role in promoting accessible communication and upholding the rights of Deaf people throughout the country.
