What the system works out

Save your credentials to see the result.

Interpreters

Every interpreter gives a membership number and confirms their own listing when they sign up. A staff member then opens the directory, reads it, and records what they saw. SignBridge checks every profile again once a year.

Interpreter calendar

Pick a date to see who is confirmed. Past dates keep the record: who interpreted, for how long, and what kind of assignment.

A number in a green badge means confirmed bookings on that day.Grey days are in the past and hold the record.A dashed edge marks today.

Interpreting tires the body and the mind. Past about an hour of steady work, accuracy drops and injury risk climbs, so interpreters take turns.

Where we send updates

Your email address

We email you every step: sent, accepted, declined, no reply, cancelled. We also remind you 24 hours and 2 hours before the appointment.

Your mobile number

We text this number. Optional.

Client's email address Do you want us to email your client with updates?

Your client chooses this, not you. Ask them once, then set it here.

The interpreter sees your client's first name only. Your own name, email and phone number stay private unless SignBridge releases them.

Interpreters I trust
