@GeorgieBarnett_ @SelinaJBSL Welcome to the Registers! 🙌🏻

@SelinaJBSL @NRCPD Thank you Selina! ☺️, I feel super privileged! Can’t wait to start 🙌💜

Every year I watch the final year students post their badges and every year I think “hmm, I wonder what I’ll say if/ when I get mine?”. But now…I’m just lost for words 🥹. I’m just so grateful and excited to join this amazing profession and share it with some incredible people🫶🏻

@paulbelmontesli This is an important consideration. As we move into next year, we will be looking at CPD and will be consulting with registrants and stakeholders on how we can further guide Registrants in specified activities. We look forward to your input.

Should some element of meaningful observed practice be a mandatory part of registration requirements for @NRCPD ? My skills could have deteriorated since my first registration; how do I know I’m still fit to practice?

I’m very grateful to the deaf person who provided such high quality formal feedback on one of my recent assignments. I think it’s important to work WITH deaf people to improve our work (and to pay for their expertise!)

@BSLterplife We think that the principle of an emphasis on professional supervision as CPD is excellent. #allintime #futurefocused.

Here's an unsolicited idea: Make professional supervision (6 x a year) mandatory, introduce twice yearly in-work observations from qualified assessors for *all* registrants, and reduce general CPD requirements to 12 points per year. What do you think, @NRCPD?

Please welcome the @NRCPD to our Community Directory! Now, if you need to get in touch with the NRCPD you can via a SignLive interpreter. We're so proud to be their new VRS partner and look forward to working together. #NRCPD #BSL #Interpreting #VRS

@Powellcm2 @wlv_uni Well done, @Powellcm2.

Congratulations to @wlv_uni on 30 years of Deaf studies and interpreter education. The first BA to achieve approval as a route to registration with @NRCPD.

A great morning spent with the Chairs of the Deaf Interpreters Network. Future focused and lots of discussion around the further development of the professions. 🙌🏻

@LipspeakLondon Thank you for your comments. NRCPD is working to address concerns raised across the Lipspeaking sector. We do so from an impartial position, seeking to engage with all lipspeakers with the purpose of moving the profession forward in a positive way.

So now we are being bribed. The Lipspeaking profession is shattered. @NRCPD are no longer impartial and fuel the fire. Stop thrashing those trying to save the profession. Grow a spine NRCPD and sort this out. Once and for good.

This week includes National Interpreter Appreciation Day. NRCPD would like to thank ALL of our registrants. Thank you, today, as you go out working, for making safe decisions and ensuring high standards of service to Deaf and Deafblind people. We appreciate you. Thank you.

Already a great and engaging morning at the @BDA_Deaf BSL Conference. #bslinourhands

@Louisam78 @Mel_Demetriou95 It is, indeed, a webcam blocker!

@Mel_Demetriou95 @NRCPD Looks like a laptop webcam blocker to me.

@NRCPD I have been staring at this for hours! It was in my bag I got from #Deafday but….WHAT IS IT!?!?

@citylit @LipspeakerUK @SignLiveUK @BDA_Deaf @Emma82168318 @royaldeaf Thankyou @citylit for a great day!

Another fantastic turnout for this year's Deaf Day, which took place last weekend here at City Lit. Thousands of attendees came from all over the UK to celebrate Deaf culture, meet and socialise. Read more on our blog: ow.ly/ZB6650Rh2Ij We hope to see you again next year!

@paulbelmontesli @BSLterplife Good evening. Thank you. Points taken and noted. These hills have certain complexities that we are working through. #potentialplans However, we share the view that reflective practice is key; and that transparent, regular communication is vital.

@BSLterplife Can I add @NRCPD no longer engaging on Twitter/X? There were some challenging conversations, but it felt like accountability and genuine engagement with registrants. Their comms used to be really good; now there’s almost nothing

Current gripes: 1) supervision should be mandatory 2) NRCPD removing the "raise a concern" process was a terrible idea.
