This Professional Studies program is offered for 0.35 PS CEUs at the little/none Content Knowledge Level. RID HQ is an approved RID CMP Sponsor for continuing education activities.

Mental health is known as a specialized topic within the field of interpreting, but how do we know if we are competent to interpret mental health topics that appear in educational settings? In this workshop, we will identify and discuss elements of mental health that may arise in K-12 and postsecondary settings and identify our readiness and competence to interpret psychological concepts. Participants will have opportunities to practice various scenarios that might appear in educational environments and will review ethical considerations related to interpreter competence.
