I have the "Decisions Decisions" book, let me find it and I will post some ethical questions for you! I look forward to seeing what others come up with, too!
I actually didn't think the prices were completely unreasonable ( considering the effort to put them together and that they're short run )
(then again the new signaller I got for my phone was "only 50.00" and I thought that was a right steal ... so perhaps I'm just used to paying $$ like that for specialised things)
the NIC carries alot of weight with it...so its well worth the cost of the test.

That's a topic that was debated at the state-wide terp conference that I attended a few weeks ago.It appears you think its worth cost. I disagree.

"Is it fair for non-certified terps to earn just a little less per hour than certified terps?" If terps don't get a big pay boost when they achieve certification, then what's the motivation to go thru the stress and expense of testing? That topic was presented to our "Beyond Ethics" workshop group for discussion.
BTW, workshop was led by Keith Wann.
Workshops were all day Saturday.WOW! Your sooo lucky to attend a workshop by Keith Wann was he adding any comedy his workshop? Just curious....
Workshops were all day Saturday.
The evening before (Friday), Keith did an entire comedy stage performance. It was great!!!! It was open to the public (for the price of a ticket) so it wasn't just for terps. Local Deaf people also attended Keith's performance.
He included his "interpreting" a rap song skit, among others.
He was serious in presenting his workshop but he also included humor to keep it lively.
He strongly promotes certification. He's a CODA but he believes that even CODAs need to get college degrees and certifications--they don't get a special "pass" to interpret.
OMG !!! you're sooooo lucky - I'd LOVE to see Keith Wann !
