Employability Skills | |||
Learning Outcomes and Application | This unit describes the skills required to manage the physical setting and communication dynamics of discourses in complex settings. It requires knowledge of the nature and structure of complex interpersonal, institutional and meeting dynamics and the ability to apply effective solutions to challenges that arise during the discourse. The unit includes planning and confirming the discourse process, managing the communication flow, and reviewing and evaluating the discourse management process.This unit applies to those working as interpreters in a range of complex settings for a variety of purposes. Complex settings are those involving specialised subjects requiring a high level of subject knowledge, or intense assignment specific preparation. The physical elements of the setting, or the number of parties involved, limit the interpreter from managing the discourse. The interpreter may be required to switch modes in a challenging environment, where there is a range of participant interests and personal welfare and safety issues that need to be considered. Interpreting in this setting typically requires assignments involving formality, or participants with high status and accountability. There are limited opportunities for error correction and the consequences of errors in communicative intent can have significant implications.The skills and knowledge described in this unit must be applied within the legislative, regulatory and policy environment in which they are carried out. Organisational policies and procedures must be consulted and industry codes and standards for ethical translating and interpreting adhered to.Those undertaking this unit would work autonomously, using a broad range of support resources as required, while performing sophisticated tasks in a range of specialised contexts.No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to unit at the time of publication. | ||
