Comparative Ethics and Ethical Dilemmas
Saturday, October 10, 10 a.m. – 12:30 p.m.
As interpreters we have the responsibility to say the right thing, but also to do the right thing. By considering ethical dilemmas and consulting our code of ethics, participants in this webinar will be better prepared to make ethically informed decisions when faced with perplexing situations during interpreting sessions. A particular focus of this session will be an examination of the difference in the codes of ethics of medical interpreters and judiciary interpreters, bearing in mind that some interpreters work in both fields.
