There are still places available for the Interpreting and Technology
workshop being held by the Translation Unit at Imperial College.
This is open to professionals as well as students

Course Content

This course will introduce you to a new CAT tool that is gradually gaining ground in the translation industry. You will become familiar with the new user interface memoQ provides and learn how to use its main functions effectively according to the project you are working on.

The first part of the course will focus on the rationale behind the structure of memoQ in comparison to other software and the reasons that have made it popular among translation companies.
During the second part of the course, you will be introduced to the main functions of the software and you will be guided through processes of translation, as well as building your own resources with memoQ. By the end of the exercises that follow this process, you will be able to use memoQ for basic translation projects.
In the last part of the course, more advanced features will be discussed (e.g., export solutions, dealing with different file formats, compatibility with other software, QA, reports, etc.).
Finally, participants will be added to a Hangout that will last for a week where they can talk about their experience in using memoQ and discuss any issues that might arise with the rest of the participants and the tutor. Participants will also be given a list of links and resources.
