Course Description
‘I’m just not good enough!’
In the course of your professional practice you may have heard a colleague say this, or you may even have said it yourself. This feeling of not being good enough is rooted in shame. This webinar will examine the issue of shame, with a specific focus on how feelings of shame and inadequacy can impact on the relationships interpreters have with their deaf and hearing clients.
We will take a detailed look at where shame can originate from and how it affects us. We will consider how we can recognise feelings of shame and what our individual triggers might be. I will detail how interpreters can be alert to feelings of shame within interpreted interaction. Finally we will explore how we can manage these feelings when they arise, and how we can build resilience to shame.
Completion of this course will give you a minimum of 2 hours' structured CPD points. You will also be provided with a number of resources for you to gain further unstructured CPD points.
This course is available for 90 days from the date you purchased it.

Read MoreI thoroughly enjoyed this webinar. I can relate to most of the content and have encountered numerous examples of shame throughout my interpreting career. It is extremely liberating to be able to identify shame, in all its forms, and to be able to learn coping strategies to use when experiencing this. It is also reassuring to know, it's not just me!
