Enquiry Jul 4, 2013

Hi, I will be attending a little late, so will miss the beginning of the webinar. Would like to know if I can watch the video later or will I miss the whole thing if not on time?

Many thanks.

Hello Gabrielle,

Thanks for your interest in the training.

It will be recorded and the video will be released within one working week after the session. Once it is available at the website all participants will be notified accordingly. You will have unlimited access to the video and handouts; a certificate of attendance will be available for download from your ProZ.com profile even if you do not attend the live session.

Hope this helps.

My bests,
Helen

VAE France Jul 5, 2013

Thank you to Dave Neve (SafeTex) for sharing information about the VAE in France. The information he has shared is pasted below and may be of great interest to translators working in France.

If anyone else has information about any other professional qualifications that are relevant to translators then please share.

Here is the government site for the VAE: http://www.vae.gouv.fr/

Basically, in almost any profession, there are a couple of exceptions, you can get a Validation of what you have
Acquired and your Experience (hence VAE). You are questioned by a panel of 'experts' working in that
field. It probably doesn't have the weight of an DipTrans or an M.A but if you are a translator who has worked in the profession for some time and you get your VAE, your clients know that you have some real 'baggage'.

There are many VAE centers in France where you can go to do it, often housed within a University. ▲ Collapse

Description of webinar being questioned Feb 20, 2014

I just thought I'd mention that the description of the webinar is being discussed in another forum:
http://www.proz.com/forum/professional_development/264709-upcoming_webinar_a_little_biased.html

Maybe Gwenydd would like to contribute to that forum?

Thanks for pointing this out Tomás! Jul 5, 2016

No intention of being biased, but balanced yes. I've responded on the link you gave.

Best,
Gwenydd Jones
