The awarding body’s page Fees, dates and entry requirements are there, not here.

What it is

Translation is regulated provincially in Canada, so certification is granted by the provincial societies that make up the council, not by the council itself; holders carry the title Certified Translator, which is protected in some provinces. The council administers the common certification exam for its societies.

Who it suits

Translators living in Canada or wishing to work with Canadian public bodies.

What it requires

Membership of the provincial society in the candidate's province; each society sets its own qualification and experience requirements.

How it is earned

Join the provincial society, then pass the certification exam the council administers, or another route the society recognises. Ask the society which languages are offered, Arabic included.
