Event Details
Many interpreters look at teaming from an individual standpoint. The tendency is to go into a teamed assignment with our own experiences and expect that is the norm. This workshop takes a look at best practices in a teaming environment and how each interpreters’ needs can be met. Participants will be able to address concerns they have experienced and come up with solutions on how to address future concerns. The workshop starts off with activities that allow for group discussion. Participants will later get hands on experience through activities which involve teaming English to ASL as well as ASL to English.

• Devise 2 methods to lessen anxiety of colleagues when going into a teaming environment.
• Discuss possible solutions for ethical challenges in teaming situations.
