In this webinar, with her experience of more than 1000 hours of interpreting in the special education setting, María Pía will explain what you need to know to step into a special education setting as an interpreter. What is the difference between an advocate and an interpreter? Based on her experience, what are the do’s and don’ts of interpreting in special education settings? Should the interpreter use consecutive or simultaneous interpretation? What are the procedural safeguards and what is useful for the interpreters to understand the narrative of this document? She will also explain the fundamentals of the different types of meetings like Annual and Triennial IEPs, Initial Assessments & 504 plan and will provide examples of the jargon and acronyms utilized by the professionals involved in each of those meetings. After this training, the interpreter will have the right foundation to work as an interpreter in a special education setting.
Interpreters who employ advanced practice strategies in the encounter, instead of purely “message in/message out,” can further enhance communication and improve outcomes. The presenter will review ethical parameters and foundational principles which support advanced decision-making for healthcare and educational interpreters. The presenter will then share specific techniques for interpreters to use and for managers and leaders to support. The presenter will argue that interpreters who employ these techniques can enhance communication, trust, and satisfaction in the encounter. The presenter will ultimately argue that interpreters make more effective decisions and further elevate the status of our profession when they possess emotional intelligence and soft skills.
In part I, the presenter will share approximately 10 strategies which include the use of scripts to improve others’ appreciation of our practice decisions, creative visual aids that benefit all parties, and a unique approach to navigating sophisticated terms, concepts, and acronyms.
In part II, Andrea will share 10 additional strategies which include the “combined question-answer” model for language-discordant families, an “outside-the-box” pre-session/post-session, the “post-pause recovery”, and useful strategies for interpreting in the setting of death.

Disaster preparation usually consists of stocking up on non-perishable food and water and making sure you have batteries for your flashlight. But no one really gave much thought to how we might prepare for quarantining whole families for months while trying to keep businesses, households and schools still running — until now. Work-life balance seemed elusive before Corona; now many of us are homesteading work-from-home home schoolers. A light-hearted look at others’ missteps will inform how we might tackle some of the challenges, and make us better prepared to cope with what lies ahead.

Indigenous Interpreters face many challenges as they navigate the interpreting profession. Two prominent ones are the lack of direct equivalencies in their native languages of westernized terms and concepts as well as the need to preform relay interpreting with common language interpreters with little or no training in relay interpreting. In this webinar we will share the experiences and successes of practicing Indigenous interpreters as they confront these challenges. We will also discuss protocols and mediation strategies that working interpreters have successfully used. All of these best practices and strategies have been collected in the recently published Textbook and workbook The Indigenous Interpreter®. This webinar will be presented by one of the co-authors of this publication and will be beneficial to all working interpreter as well as those charged with providing interpretation for Indigenous and LLD languages.

For most, if not all assignments, interpreters receive documents electronically. They sign contracts and send invoices electronically. In addition, they spend a good part of the year on the go and they are expected to maintain communication with clients irrespective of where they are. As a result, they need a mobile office. Technology can help make an interpreter’s life easier.

Healthcare Interpreters have long been considered language workers. While it is true that their expertise lies in communication, medical interpreters must also be considered part of the healthcare workforce. And as healthcare workers, interpreters must acquire the specialized knowledge to be safe members of the healthcare team.

Effective intercultural communication gives you a professional edge needed to excel in the T&I world. Cultural differences pose certain complexities to our work, and understanding how they are internalized and expressed is important and useful.
– How do your clients experience working with you as a professional?
– What are their communicative expectations?
– How can you improve your active listening skills?
– Is active listening different when it is intercultural?
– Aren’t all relationships ultimately intercultural?
– How can I avoid miscommunication or discomfort in my interactions?
The workshop answers these questions and explores the role of the translator and interpreter as a communication expert in addition to being a linguistic one.

Interpreters experience mental fatigue in the healthcare setting. While interpreters are aware of the potential for diminished accuracy when we become mentally fatigued, we do not have control over our environment. Rather, we think we don’t. Ms. Henry will provide valid arguments for interpreters to exercise more agency and effectively advocate for optimal working conditions. She will provide specific techniques and corresponding scripts for both interpreters and managers in our efforts to control the quality of our performance. Ms. Henry will argue that the use of scripts has the effect of indirectly persuading others to advocate for our optimal performance, as well.

In a 2016 Maryland Court of Special Appeals case, issues of interpreter competence, training and certification were front and center before the court in reviewing a criminal conviction. The deaf criminal defendant was permitted to testify at trial about his allegations of “misinterpretations” and “miscommunications” of his sign language communications by the courtroom interpreters. The trial court did not allow the defendant to call his interpreters as witnesses and cross examine them. The defendant was convicted and then appealed to the Court of Special Appeals.
The appeals court reversed the conviction and ordered a new trial, deciding that the defendant “was denied his constitutional right to confront and cross-examine the interpreter during the State’s case.”

We recognize that interpreters’ lives and livelihood has changed with this pandemic. Our students and associates might have less work or no work now, while the world is trying to adjust to the situation. Remote interpreting is becoming and will most likely stay much more in-demand. Work has become more difficult for some due to being on-call, while at the same time managing housework, family and homeschooled kids. Some might need to learn new equipment and understand new terminology.
This webinar is meant as a validation and recognition to all interpreters facing the changes in career and anxiety due to current events. It will have an interactive part where attendees will write terms in their own language and discuss them with the presenter, as well as ask her any questions. We will provide useful emotional support and glossary building tools, to help interpreters approach every day with positive knowledge and confidence. We are in this together. And together we can.

Genetic biotechnologies are becoming a growing part of our medical arsenal these days.

Summary of Topics: Vocabulary like absorption, allergic reactions, interactions between medications. For side effects, touch on common side effects like nausea, headache, and less frequent side effects like anaphylactic reactions. The adherence piece can be fraught with cultural difficulties, because in many cultures patients tell the providers what they think the providers would like to hear, and not necessarily the truth. An example of this is that the patient may say that he/she is injecting insulin regularly as prescribed, but may have the belief that using insulin will cause blindness. The role of the interpreter here is to help the patient explain to the provider what his/her beliefs are, and what is the real situation regarding which prescribed medications they are taking and which they may not be.
