Our History

From the start, our main objective was to create an ongoing business relationship with our customers. We recognized the need for consistent, prompt and respectful relationships for the communities we serve.

FLIC was founded by four working interpreters in Calgary, Alberta, Canada in 2001.   What started out as a business focusing mainly on post secondary educational interpreting has grown into a multi-faceted company providing interpretation services in all possible settings through out the province as well as across Canada.   In addition, we have been able to provide financial support to local Deaf organizations and their national and provincial professional associations. We support professional development for ongoing learning and improvement for our roster of interpreters.

Based on FLIC's philosophy to focus on long-term relationships, we worked on building the business and providing quality interpretation both online and in-person. Over time, the professionalism and quality of service became known in Calgary, and is now a preferred service locally and in other locations. Every year, more freelance interpreters have joined the roster and the opportunity for further partnerships continues.
