Translating Europe Forum 2017 (Brussels on the 6 and 7 November 2017)

Registration to the #TranslatingEurope Forum 2017 is now open!

New skills, new markets, new profiles                     

The Translation Department of the European Commission is organising the 4th edition of the #Translating Europe Forum, focusing this year on translators' skills and employability.


· What skills do young and established translators need to master in order to thrive in the business?
· Are there sets of "new skills" corresponding to changing/emerging market needs?
· What are the new profiles needed in the language industry?
· What are the specific skills required to master translation tools and technologies?

Join us for 2 days of lively discussions with experts from the private sector, academia, public services, educators as well as young and experienced professionals.

Confirmed keynote speakers: Peter FLADE (Senior Advisor, GALLUP) and Jaap VAN DER MEER (TAUS).

The Forum will take place in Brussels on the 6 and 7 November 2017. No on-site registration will be accepted. All sessions will be web-streamed.
