This unit describes the skills required to interpret from a source language to a target language in complex monologue settings, preserving the communicative intent of the source language. The unit requires the ability to use a range of techniques to assist the message transfer process and to address problems in delivery.An interpreter in the monologue setting is required to interpret from source to target language in one direction. The physical elements of the complex setting will likely prevent the interpreter from managing the discourse.Interpreting in this setting typically requires high levels of accuracy and accountability and assignments involving formality, or participants with high status and accountability. The content may involve specialised subjects requiring a high level of subject knowledge, or intense assignment-specific preparation. The content of communication may not easily be predicted or planned for, and there are unlikely to be opportunities for error correction. The consequences of errors in communicative intent can have significant implications. The audience in a complex monologue setting typically requires the interpreter to use public speaking or presentation skills.This unit applies to those working as interpreters working in consecutive and Auslan simultaneous modes, either alone, collaboratively in tandem, relay or as part of a team.The skills and knowledge described in this unit must be applied within the legislative, regulatory and policy environment in which they are carried out. Organisational policies and procedures must be consulted and industry codes and standards for ethical translating and interpreting adhered to.Those undertaking this unit would work independently, using a broad range of support resources, while performing sophisticated tasks in a range of specialised contextsNo licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to unit at the time of publication.
