As certified or accredited professional interpreters and translators, it is critical that you have a solid understanding of your obligations relating to your professional duties and responsibilities.
Are you aware that the professional duties you undertake are governed by the national Code of Ethics and Code of Conduct?
For those practitioners who are specialising or perhaps aspiring to work in the legal, court and law enforcement settings, are you familiar with the JCCD National recommended standards for practitioners working in the courts and tribunals?
Do you know what those standards are and do you practice them?
Did you know that it is not uncommon for parties in legal or police settings to allege that they have been disadvantaged because of a particular interpretation afforded in the police Record of Interview or at the hearing at court due to lexical choices or a particular conduct issue?
When such complainTs about the quality of interpreting are made, did you know that the interpreter may be subpoenaed by the court as an expert witness to appear in court so they can be asked to state under oath/affirmation that they interpreted accurately to the best of their skill and ability, or to give evidence about any linguistic or conduct issues raised. Did you know that the interpreter can also be cross examined?

We address and investigate these and many other questions as part of our Duties and Responsibilities of interpreters and translators working in legal settings Course delivered by Language Experts.
