Event Details
Countless interpreting agencies offer ASL video remote interpreting, including spoken language interpreting services. ASL interpreters have a great opportunity and significant influence to help shape VRI companies to support equitable application of VRI. This workshop will guide us through a vetting strategy to determine what kinds of agencies interpreters should partner with, how to guide agencies to improve their practices, and how to advocate for appropriate application of VRI.
Educational Objectives:
After this workshop, participants will be able to:
1. Identify successful and problematic agency practices that don’t support equitable VRI
2. Develop effective scripting to improve best practices
3. Engage spoken language interpreting agencies when solicited.
ASLIS virtual workshops are NOT recorded for later viewing.
