"Created by translators for translators, interpreters and all players of the translation industry, the Alexandria Library offers an array of resources for continuous professional development (CPD) and services, such as:<br />
– live webinars, online courses, online workshops and online training for translators, interpreters and language services providers (LSPs)<br />
– on-demand training videos<br />
– various types of resources such as glossaries, termbases, e-books… (...)
The symbolism is clear – while our goal is not to gather all of mankind’s knowledge, 'our' Alexandria – yours, Alexandria for the translation industry – has the following objectives:<br />
Create a platform for resources and training, to help translation services providers in their day-to-day work, and help them stay up-to-date on the latest tools and trends – there is no longer a need to<br />
explain the importance and benefits of professional development throughout one’s career, particularly in our profession where we learn something new every day from each text we translate.<br />
Offer a platform for colleagues who wish to share specific knowledge, experiences or expertise so that they allow others to benefit from it, therefore helping themselves to establish their reputation within the profession.<br />
Develop a network of training partners – small LSPs and freelance translators with high standards and keen to share their knowledge and expertise<br />
Contribute to promoting the importance and value of our profession<br />
Educate translation buyers on the value of our work and high quality standards and raise awareness : yes, translation and interpretation are a real job and a real industry!"
