AUSIT events and webinars

Ethical decision-making in translation is rarely as simple as applying a rule to a clear-cut situation. Translators often work with incomplete briefs, tight deadlines, sensitive content, client expectations, agency requirements, and questions about accuracy, transparency, confidentiality, and professional boundaries.

This information session will explain the updated requirements, how the new catalogue works, and what practitioners need to know when planning and recording their professional development activities. Participants will also have an opportunity to ask questions and clarify how the changes may affect their next recertification application.

This session examines the ethical relationship between legal interpreters and lawyers in court, tribunal and other litigation settings. It focuses on the JCCD Recommended National Standards for Working with Interpreters in Courts and Tribunals, their background and practical significance, and how those Standards interact with the AUSIT Code of Ethics and Code of Conduct and lawyers' professional conduct obligations.
