Is NAATI CCL a difficult test to pass?
Most people think that NAATI CCL is a difficult test. This is because of the paraprofessional interpreter test of the past where the format was a bit difficult and after passing it you could work as an interpreter. But NAATI replaced it with the CCL test in 2018. So these days people who want to work as an interpreter have to undergo a Diploma of interpreting (endorsed course) which are language specific or non-language specific courses (Diploma or higher) provided by RMIT and other institutions.
The CCL test now is much easier and the pass rate in the NAATI CCL test is almost 90% compared to 5% in the paraprofessional Interpreter test.
What is the cost of NAATI CCL exam?
$800
How the test is marked?
At least two trained examiners mark CCL tests independently. The CCL test comprises two dialogues and each dialogue is marked by the examiner using a deductive marking system. Examiners consider the types of error present in the candidate’s performance and the impact of those errors in determining the deductions they will make. Each dialogue receives a mark out of 45. To pass a candidate needs to score at least 29 out of 45 for each dialogue and score at least 63 out of 90 overall. When NAATI issues the result for the CCL test it will be based on the mark achieved:
PASS: 63 or higher (out of 90)
