Course Description
Studying ethics helps interpreters when things get complicated from a moral perspective. These situations can be confusing enough when contained to one field of interpreting, but can be even more challenging when legal and medical ethics overlap. This 30-minute class will explore situations where these areas can intersect, and how to handle them.
