Note-taking
is one of the most essential skills an interpreter needs to work on to perform well. However, interpreting is a complex process that involves challenging tasks in not only note-taking, but also listening, comprehending, evaluating, reformulating, and delivering all at the same time. In other words, excessive note-taking can jeopardise our ability to concentrate on other tasks that are equally crucial to a good interpreting performance.

So, what should we do? How to take notes efficiently and avoid excessive note-taking? Are there any alternative ways to retain information? These are the basic questions this webinar hopes to address, and all practitioners both new and seasoned are welcome to join in this interactive session to refresh your note-taking skills.

Please NOTE:  This event will be preceded by the Extraordinary General Meeting of AUSIT (please register separately to attend the EGM).

AUSIT members will be able to attend both events for FREE.
