This workshop is designed for staff and volunteers of newcomer serving organizations who are not trained interpreters, but are sometimes called on to interpret. Staff who book / use interpreters or managers of settlement programs are also welcome to attend.
The workshop will take place between 9:30 am - 2:30 pm and will include breaks.
Some of the topics we will discuss include:
What happens when I am called upon to interpret as part of my current job duties?
What is the role of a trained professional interpreter and how is that different from being a language assistant/language support?
How do I know when the interpretation is beyond my current skills and abilities as a language assistant/language support?
and many other important issues!
Areas we will cover include:
Standards of Practice: Ethical Principles & Performance Expectations
Accuracy and Fidelity
Introductions at an Interpreting Assignment: Practicing the Introduction
Sight Translation
