   NOTIS’s Community Interpreters Division (CID) presents:

  Interpreting for IEPs and Beyond: The Role of Social Service Interpreters in Schools
  Presented by Fanny Cordero

  
  

  What is it about?
  IEP, SDI, PWN, BASC, SBA, LRE, SLD, CELF, ELA, TEXL, IDEA, FAPE…. These are some of the acronyms that are commonly used when interpreting for IEP meetings in public schools. Just as in medical interpreting, interpreting for education encounters requires that interpreters invest some time learning terminology used in Special Education IEP meetings in public schools for grades K-12.

  This two-hour interactive class will introduce participants to the Individualized Education Program (IEP) and address spoken language interpretation for IEP meetings in public school grades K-12.

  Objectives for this class:

  1. Introduction to IEP and the IEP Timeline
  2. Overview of what happens at IEP meetings
  3. Exploration of interpretation strategies and challenges in this area, plus practice with provided scripts in breakout groups
  4. Presentation of a list of suggested resources for preparation and continued study

  
  When? 
  Saturday, August 30, 2025 — 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. PDT
  Check-in: Please sign in at 8:50 a.m.
  Class time: 9:00 a.m. – 11:00 a.m. PDT

  INTERPRETING FOR SURVIVORS OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE 
  Presented by Yuliya Speroff

  
   
  Every year, more than 10 million men and women in the U.S. experience domestic violence. Domestic violence can happen to anyone regardless of class, gender, race, age, disability, religion or educational background. Medical interpreters may find themselves interpreting for survivors of domestic violence in a wide variety of settings - from an emergency room to a counseling session. Interpreting in such encounters can present unique challenges to interpreters in terms of terminology, the importance of upholding the ethical principles, and vicarious trauma.

  After attending this class, the participants will be able to:
   - Define domestic violence and related concepts
   - Give examples of domestic abuse
   - Explain how domestic violence affects immigrant victims
   - Discuss challenges related to interpreting for survivors of domestic violence and strategies for overcoming them
   - Practice with converting key terminology into their working language(s) 

  .......................................

  
  NOTE: This workshop will be recorded.

  NOTIS’s Community Interpreters Division (CID) presents:

  Interpreting Between the Lines: Making Sense of Idioms, Jokes and Jargon
  Presented by Yuliya Speroff

  Workshop Overview
  Healthcare interpreters invest a significant amount of time in learning medical terminology and the ins and outs of the US healthcare system — and rightly so. However, interpreting encounters in healthcare settings are not all dense medical jargon — they involve real people speaking real language, which may include small talk, stories, jokes, idioms, and cultural references. It might seem that interpreting idioms is less important than getting the medical facts right, but idioms may contain key messages such as descriptions of a patient's progress or lack of it and speakers’ attitude to the situation.

  This 3-hour interactive class will equip participants with strategies for dealing with idioms and cultural references and allow participants to develop the newly acquired skills through group practice activities. At the end of the class, the participants will be provided with a list of suggested resources for further practice and study of idioms.

  Materials include a PowerPoint presentation, a worksheet with practice exercises, and suggested resources for further study of idioms.

  This class includes interactive activities and discussions.

  Learning Objectives:

  1. For participants to become familiar with the concept of idioms and cultural references and to understand the need for developing strategies for dealing with such linguistic phenomena

  2. For participants to develop appropriate strategies for interpreting idioms and cultural references

  3. For participants to engage in meaningful practice that would allow them to develop the newly acquired skills

  
  

  NOTE: This workshop will be recorded. Registrants will have access to the recording for one month following the event.

  IMPROVING SHORT-TERM MEMORY & FOCUS FOR INTERPRETERS 
  Presented by Eliana Lobo

  

  Sharpen your skills with this hands-on workshop designed for interpreters at all levels — whether you're just starting out or a seasoned professional. This interactive session focuses on strengthening two critical interpreting abilities: short-term memory and focused attention.

  Tailored for interpreters in court, healthcare, community, and educational settings, the workshop introduces practical, easy-to-replicate skill drills that you can incorporate into your personal practice routine. 

  Through participatory exercises, you'll explore:

  • Techniques to enhance memory retention 
  • Techniques to sustain attention
  • Methods to track and measure progress
  • Strategies to identify and analyze errors
  • How to increase challenge levels over time for continuous growth

  
  You'll walk away with tools to assess your own performance, choose drills that target specific skill gaps, and build a sustainable practice plan for ongoing professional improvement.

  Ready to boost your interpreting accuracy and confidence? Join us and take the first step toward sharper focus and stronger memory on the job.

  NOTE: This workshop will be recorded. Registrants will have access to the recording for one month following the event.

   NOTIS’s Community Interpreters Division (CID) presents: 

  Everyday Ethics for Interpreters: Lessons from Real-World Situations
  Presented by Yvonne Simpson

  
  

  
  The goal of this two-hour workshop is to educate interpreters on the DSHS Code of Professional Conduct. Participants will walk through the Code of Conduct and then apply it to real-life scenarios that have been submitted to NOTIS. For each scenario, the participants will be asked to reflect on whether they have faced a similar situation, what did they do at the time, what portion(s) of the DSHS Code of Conduct apply to the given scenario, and what are some appropriate options for addressing the scenario in light of the Code of Conduct. Participants will also be made aware of other Codes of Conduct that guide ethical interpreter practice (e.g. NCIHC, WA AOC, etc.)  
   

  

  1. Understand the DSHS Code of Professional Conduct: Participants will gain a comprehensive understanding of the DSHS Code of Conduct and its application to professional interpreting practice.

  2. Apply Ethical Principles to Real-Life Scenarios: Participants will analyze real-life scenarios, identify applicable sections of the DSHS Code of Conduct, and evaluate appropriate responses to ethical challenges.

  3. Explore Other Relevant Codes of Conduct: Participants will become familiar with additional Codes of Conduct, such as those from NCIHC and WA AOC, to broaden their understanding of ethical standards in the interpreting profession.

  
  Here is a list of links to the Code of Ethics used in the workshop:

  • WAC 388-03-050 DSHS Code of Professional Conduct 
  • NCIHC Standards of Practice
  • NAIE Code of Ethics
  • NAD-RID Code of Professional Conduct
  • Standards of Practice and Ethics for WA State Judiciary Interpreters

  Note-taking is an essential skill for any interpreter – whether you’re interpreting at a medical appointment, a deposition, or a conference. In this 3-hour interactive webshop, interpreters will be introduced to the fundamentals of note-taking and discuss how note-taking aids in accuracy and helps interpreters deal with various interpreting challenges – from long speech segments to delicate discussions. During the webshop, interpreters will engage in multiple practice exercises to apply newly acquired knowledge and refine note-taking skills.

  STRESS and Interpreting
  Presented by Eliana Lobo

  
  

  What is this training about?
  Attendees will learn how stress negatively impacts performance, and what they can do about it. This training explains how the physiological effects of stress impact and impede language production and conversion, while providing tools and techniques to help manage stress and improve performance.
  
  Training strategies, techniques for self-calming and study plans for interpreters will be shared with the goal of better preparing working interpreters to be better at handling stress in the moment of interpreting.
  
  Content includes techniques to improve and manage memory, breathing exercises to reduce stress and improve message delivery. Methods for establishing baseline metrics (how fast is too fast, how long is too long) will be shared; and exercises for measuring one’s progress, as well as establishing stretch goals for memory and speed will be demonstrated and shared.

  Sample scripts for managing flow before the discussion or conversation goes off track will be given. Participants will be encouraged to personalize scripted templates for us in the pre-session and when asking for a repetition or clarification. Skill drills that simulate added stress will be shared. These simulations help prepare interpreters to work while experiencing stress, in that they can learn to develop the additional mechanical skills together with the ability to work through their stress, and ultimately do a better job, while on the job.

  Ethics Jeopardy! 2.0
  Presented by Cindy Roat

  

  What’s it about?
  Ethics has never been so much fun! This two-hour class uses the format of the game show “Jeopardy!” to meet your one-credit ethics requirement for DSHS as well as to get you thinking about how the DSHS Code of Conduct applies to real-life situations. Join veteran interpreter trainer Cindy Roat for a fun and ethical workshop!

  
  

  Learning objectives:
  

  
  At the conclusion of this class, participants will be able to:

  • Name the 12 canons of the DSHS Code of Conduct

  • Identify which canon applies to a given circumstance in healthcare or social service interpreting.

  • Use the principles of the canons to the given circumstances to describe an appropriate response in the given circumstances.
    
    

  Handout: 12-WAC 388-03-050 DSHS Code of Conduct 2021.pdf

  This class is a redesign of the very popular Ethics Jeopardy! class approved by LTC in 2023. As so many interpreters have asked to retake the class for their annual ethics credit, the class has been redesigned, using the same Jeopardy template but changing the questions and answers.

  This short class will still begin with a quick review of the canons of the DSHS Code of Conduct. Then, as in the previous version, the participants will be split into two teams to play a game using the Jeopardy format to challenge their memory of the canons and their ability to apply the canons to specific interpreting challenges. The questions, however, will be different, as will the specific interpreting challenges presented.

  This workshop will not be recorded.
  To earn credit, live attendance is required.

  When?

  Tuesday, January 20, 2026
  6:00 – 8:00 p.m. PST (Check-in opens at 5:50 p.m.)
