Webinar: 20170516 Ethical Decision-Making (INDIVIDUAL)

Interpreting and translation involve managing professional relationships, and require fast situational judgement and sound professional decision making skills. This webinar will provide interpreters and translators with a framework for reflecting on ethical and other professional practice challenges. In the webinar, we will analyse professional practice challenges using the Demand-Control Schema framework, explore the goal-based (teleological) approach to ethics and professional decision making models. Participants will apply the ethical decision-making framework to authentic interpreting and translation scenarios.
