Family Court Sample Clauses

Family Court. As has been mentioned in previous submissions, the provision of interpreting services in the family courts (from direct feedback provided by a magistrate in the North West) is not of sufficient quality in the eyes of an experienced magistrate with long established familiarity in the use of interpreters. This dissatisfaction is not with the linguistic abilities of the interpreters presenting in the courtroom. It is more a case of his appreciating that the interpreters being called to serve are insufficiently prepared to handle the non-verbal demands of managing the unique dynamics of a family court setting. In terms of the continuous professional development opportunity relevant here, this lack of excellence will be corrected by offering this magistrate or other professionals in the field the opportunity to work with an academic specialist to design and deliver a course, delivered in person or on-line, that will educate interpreters on how to carry out assignments in these circumstances to the satisfaction of the court and the public. This course will be designed and delivered by external parties contracted and funded by Applied Language Solutions. Interpreters who will be working in the family courts will be required to complete the course and will also be required to pay a modest sum to cover the cost. In compensation, the meta-tagging system detailed elsewhere will include them when requests for family court cases are received. They will get the work and re-coup their investment promptly. At the same time, interpreters who chose to refrain from working in family court settings for personal reasons are tagged to preclude them from being called on. In addition the company will provide a steady stream of relevant legal information collected by field-based staff and key customer leads which will be delivered through online means to the interpreters. This information will be delivered through a learning management system which will confirm that they have received and reviewed the information. It is also hoped that particularly committed operational staff working within the collaborative partners will take up the opportunity to deliver training directly to the interpreters giving them guidance on their professional expectations during interpreting episodes. This content would also be delivered online or in face-to-face settings. Other methods of justice-specific training will be delivered by:
