Professional Code

  • Interpreters adhere to standards of confidential communication.
  • Interpreters possess the professional skills and knowledge required for the specific interpreting situation.
  • Interpreters conduct themselves in a manner appropriate to the specific interpreting situation.
  • Interpreters demonstrate respect for consumers.
  • Interpreters demonstrate respect for colleagues, interns, and students of the profession.
  • Interpreters maintain ethical business practices.
  • Interpreters engage in professional development.

 

Working together...

  • Before the assignment/meeting, provide deaf participants and interpreters with materials such as outlines, agendas.
  • Speak directly to the deaf participant, not the interpreter. For example, "Tell me why you came in today" instead of "Ask her why she came today"
  • Speak at even pace in relatively short segments; pause often to allow the interpreter to interpret.
  • You do not need to speak especially slowly; this actually makes a competent interpreter's job more difficult.
  • Don't say anything that you don't want to be interpret.
  • Do not hold the interpreter responsible for what the deaf participant says or doesn't say.
