Community assignments do not require clearance. To work within schools, you will need to complete the appropriate clearance process, including fingerprinting, background clearance, and a possible drug test and training videos. This clearance is not required to interpret with us as an on‑site interpreter, but completing it opens more assignments to you. Where costs are involved, Context Global reimburses them once you are cleared, with an invoice and a valid copy of the receipt of payment.
