Our
colleague Iwona Banasiak participated in the CLP certification training,
organised by The Institute for Localisation Professionals (TILP).The Institute is a renowned international organisation of
experts and trainers in the professional specialisations collectively known as
localisation.
The course included theoretical preparation in spheres
connected with localisation and translation, such as: an introduction to
information and programming systems, internationalisation, project management,
CAT tools, quality control and an introduction to terminology. The second part
of the training course was a four-day practical workshop in the extent of
location programs - Alchemy Catalyst and SDL Passolo, and also lectures
dedicated to regional localisation problems and characteristics of this market
sector in Poland. Furthermore the course envisaged SDL Trados certification.
The course was complemented by a very interesting
exchange of experiences with colleagues from translation agency friends, the
majority being members of PSBT: "Although during daily work we struggle with
very similar problems, each of us views them from a somewhat different
perspective, depending on the specialisation of their business, which makes
these professional meetings an exceptionally valuable experience."
After passing the examinations Iwona gained the titles
"Certified Localisation Professional" and "SDL Trados Certified User", and also
became a member of TILP. Congratulations!
