“Ethics and Values – What Guides Our Decisions?”
Presented by Amber Tucker, M.A.
Amber Tucker, M.A. (she/her) is a certified ASL-English interpreter,
mentor, presenter, and interpreter trainer. She has a bachelor’s
degree in American Studies: Ethnic Studies, Diversity and Difference
from the University of Iowa, and a master’s degree from Union
Institute & University in Deaf History and Culture: Audism and
Allyship.
Interpreters must examine and understand what their values are
and where they come from; otherwise, ethical decision making will
be unpredictable and ineffective. This workshop explores how
values guide ethical decision-making through a values-based
framework. Participants will examine personal, professional, and
cultural values, and will learn to recognize which values are
implicated in various ethical scenarios.
