Workshop #1
How do I keep up my voicing skills when I never get to voice?!
Workshop Description:
Educational interpreters commonly interpret for students that voice for themselves. This poses a challenge when we are expected to provide sign-to-voice interpreting, often catching us off-guard due to lack of practice. This workshop will address ways educational interpreters can maintain their voicing skills as well as suggestions for on-going skill development. We will discuss the emphasis given on maintaining and improving our skills addressed in the RID-NAD Code of Professional Conduct as well as the EIPA and what implications they have for educational interpreters. Participants will be provided with the tools necessary to take their voicing skills to the next level. There will be hands-on practice for participants as well as many
examples of skill development given during the workshop.
*This workshop is offered for 1.0 RID CEU's in the Content Area of Professional Studies. Intructional level is: Some. Participants must attend the entire session to receive CEUs

Workshop #2
This even-handed justice: Shakespeare, rhetoric, and legalese for everyday interpreters.
Workshop Description:
This workshop is designed to rid interpreters of “Shakesfear” and put some legal-ease into their everyday interpreting. Often stylized texts like Shakespeare and legal vocabularies pop into jobs when we least expect. This workshop presents problem solving for interpreters using text analysis, learning more about rhetorical analysis and how it can help parse a message, and provides basic techniques used by performers to add to your interpreter toolbox.
Participants will: *Identify parts of speech, *List problematic vocabulary and discover appropriate solutions, *Compare and contrast elements of spoken and signed rhetoric, *Analyze texts for specific rhetorical cues, *Improve comfort levels with stylized text/vocabulary, *Create a tool box of resources for future work.
*This workshop is offered for 1.0 RID CEU's in the Content Area of Professional Studies. Intructional level is: Little/None. Participants must attend the entire session to receive CEUs
