Education Interpreting

Every parent deserves to understand their child's education

IMP helps interpreting agencies manage school district contracts — IEP meetings, parent-teacher conferences, classroom interpreting, and university accessibility — with FERPA compliance built in.

Education Settings

From kindergarten to graduate school

Language barriers in education mean parents can't advocate for their children and students can't access their curriculum. IMP helps agencies fill that gap across every education context.

IEP Meetings

Individualized Education Program meetings where parents, teachers, and specialists discuss student accommodations and goals.

Parent-Teacher Conferences

Scheduled and walk-in conferences during school conference weeks — often requiring multiple languages across a single school.

Classroom Interpreting

Full-day or multi-period classroom interpreting for deaf and hard-of-hearing students and ELL students.

University Services

Disability services offices, lecture interpreting, academic advising, and campus events for deaf and LEP students.

Enrollment & Registration

School enrollment meetings, registration assistance, and orientation for families with limited English proficiency.

Virtual & Remote

Video interpreting for virtual IEP meetings, remote parent conferences, and hybrid learning environments.

Compliance

FERPA compliance built into every layer

Education interpreting involves student records — names, grades, disability classifications, accommodation plans. FERPA protects this information and your agency needs to demonstrate compliance to every school district you serve.

IMP addresses this with the same security architecture that handles HIPAA: Row Level Security on every table, role-based access controls, and FERPA training modules embedded in the interpreter portal.

School Schedules

Recurring appointments that follow the school year

Classroom interpreting is often daily or weekly for an entire school year. IEP meetings happen on a predictable cycle. Conference weeks pack dozens of appointments into a few days. IMP's recurring appointment system handles all of these patterns.

Set up a recurring schedule once and IMP creates all the jobs automatically. When school breaks happen, mark the dates and jobs are paused — no manual cancellation needed.

A school district needs a Spanish interpreter every Tuesday and Thursday for 5th grade ELL support from September through June. Set it up once — 70+ jobs created automatically, billable at the district rate.

  • Daily, weekly, and custom recurrence patterns
  • Multi-location support: different schools, same district
  • Custom fields: Student ID, Grade Level, IEP Flag
  • Conference week surge scheduling support

District Billing

School district billing that accounts for everything

School districts have unique billing requirements: PO numbers on every invoice, department-level cost centers, different rates for ASL vs spoken language, half-day vs full-day rates for classroom assignments, and fiscal year billing cycles.

  • Per-district rate cards with language-specific pricing
  • PO number and cost center tracking via custom fields
  • Half-day and full-day minimum rates for classroom jobs
  • Batch invoice by district + date range + school
  • Client Portal so district staff can view invoices and request interpreters
