Americans with Disabilities Act

In the beginning of my Interpreter Training Program, we learned about the Americans with Disabilities act, often referred to as the ADA. It mentions “reasonable accommodation” but remember, that looks different for everyone.

Please see the ADA’s website:

RID-NAD, Code of Professional Conduct

In my Interpreter Training Program, we referred back to the Code of Professional Conduct many times. I use this as a guideline to how I approach interpreting.
