Team interpreting definition
Team interpreting refers to two or more interpreters working together as a team to ensure the sustained accuracy of interpretation. The team members generally pre-agree on the intervals, usually every 20 to 30 minutes, for rotating the role of active interpreter. The interpreter who is not actively interpreting assumes a supporting role and continues to follow the proceedings in order to provide the appropriate level of continuity when the interpreters’ roles are rotated. A separate contract will be issued to each interpreter working in a “team interpreting” assignment.
Team interpreting means the practice of using two or more interpreters who work together to provide interpretation for an individual, either due to a speech impairment, hearing loss, deafness, deaf-blindness, or other disability, so that the individual can adequately hear, understand, or communicate effectively in English.
Team interpreting means the utilization of 2 or more interpreters or deaf interpreter who rotate to provide simultaneous or consecutive interpretation. Team interpreters alternate interpreting duties to reduce mental and physical fatigue, reduce the potential for errors in the interpretation by monitoring and making adjustments as necessary to ensure accuracy, and assist with note-taking and monitoring the environmental logistics of the interpreted setting.
