Language Access Research

Consult Language Access Services when planning research projects related to language access or with participants who use a language other than English.

Include the cost of translation in your budget:

  • Translating consent forms costs about $100 per page.

  • Transcribing and translating Spanish audio into English costs about $18 per audio minute.

Work with translations@cchmc.org to get a more accurate cost estimate. This is especially important if you need transcription, videos, or instrument validation.

Transcription of languages other than English is considered language access. Cincinnati Children’s policy and federal law require that we work with qualified human transcriptionists through Language Access Services.
