Ethics in Educational Interpreting: Post Secondary

0.3 CEUs, PS

In this workshop, interpreters will learn to differentiate between the Code of Professional Conduct(CPC) and the Educational Interpreter Code of Ethics. In discussing scenarios, interpreters will learn how to apply both the CPC and Interpreter Code of Ethics in learning what it means to make good judgments when facing difficult scenarios and dealing with the consequences of those decisions.
