Haw. Code R. § 11-218-4 - Credentials of providers
(a) The credentials
of providers shall be based on the level and specialization determined by the
national organizations or state screening agency which provide the credentials
listed in section 11-218-3. The board shall review criteria of the credentials
awarded by national organizations and the state screening agency with input
from the community. Documentation of completion of sign language courses or
interpreter training programs shall not be substituted for credentials listed
in section 11-218-3.
(b) Currently
there are no known national or state organizations that award credentials for
computer-assisted notetakers. It is recommended that state agencies hire
persons who meet the following characteristics to provide computer-assisted
notetaking services: ability to organize and summarize information; ability to
type at least sixty words per minute; familiarity with the subject being
discussed; experience working with persons who are deaf, hard of hearing, or
deaf-blind; working knowledge of laptop computers and word processing software;
and good auditory, verbal, and spelling skills.
(c) The validity of credentials shall be
based on criteria for maintenance of credentials established by the appropriate
national or state organizations that issue credentials as referenced in section
11-218-3. Providers shall furnish, upon request, documentation of credentials
to the state agency when communication access services are contracted.
