The objective of this chapter is to outline ways in which different technologies
can be used to administer LI certification tests as a means to conduct them more
efficiently and cost-effectively. Firstly, an overview of the different ways in
which technologies can be used in interpreter testing will be given. Then the
chapter discusses the various options available to develop, administer and/or
mark screening and certification test via computer. The implications of using
technology to develop computer-based tests are outlined in order to help readers
make an informed choice on the basis of their needs and their circumstances,
including available budget, time, space, equipment and IT support.
