Workshop for Legal Language Professionals: Mastering Context in Canada鈥檚 Legal Language Professions 鈥� The Tree and the Tuning Fork
Language of Delivery: English
In this series of workshops, the Graduate Diploma in Legal Translation at 91直播 invites you to discover different dimensions of professions at the crossroad of law and languages. We offer both introductory workshops to key professions, such as legal translation and court interpreting, as well as workshops on highly specialized issues that will better meet the needs of experienced jurilinguists. All workshops are free and open to all.
In workshop 1, the presenter will explore how bilingual legal language professionals from a variety of educational backgrounds and experience pathways can enhance their research skills and make word choices confidently.
At the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:
- Visualize the Canadian legal system as a branching structure that helps guide context-sensitive translation decisions
- Distinguish between different types of legal reference tools and evaluate their suitability based on the context of the source text
- Apply a vocabulary for talking about legal translation challenges, which can support collaboration, mentorship, or training roles
This initiative is supported by Justice Canada's Access to Justice in Both Official Languages Support Fund.
