Mission

The Australian Sign Language Interpreters Association of Victoria (ASLIA Vic) is a professional body that represents the needs and interests of Auslan (Australian Sign Language) Interpreters.

It is the mission of ASLIA Vic to promote awareness and recognition of the rights and responsibilities of practitioners. ASLIA Vic provides a forum on such issues as training, recruitment, working conditions and other provisions of services within the industry.

The Association also strives to advocate and foster the continuing education of all who are working in the field.

ASLIA Vic plays an important role in initiating and/or providing the majority of professional development for sign language interpreters in Victoria.

We hold regular meetings to enable all members to become involved. These include training sessions, workshops, and discussions on the development of the profession. Our meetings provide an ideal forum for networking with peers.

Members receive regular mail outs and email bulletins on issues relevant to the field.

We can assist members by providing advice about working conditions, ethics and training.

Our members have access to and can borrow from our library of interpreting resources including books, videos and relevant reports.

ASLIA Vic is represented on many committees and organisations. This allows us to have input into government and organisational policies in relation to sign language interpreting.
