WEBINAR: Becoming a Super-Fast Freelance Translator and Coping with Technology in a Constantly Evolving World

WEBINAR: Becoming a Super-Fast Freelance Translator and Coping with Technology in a Constantly Evolving World!

By Sameh Ragab

The translation industry is becoming increasingly tech-driven, which means that freelance translators should develop their own mechanisms and protocols to keep up. This session will focus on how to boost productivity, automate tedious translation tasks, achieve more in less time, and become the preferred super-fast translator you always wanted to be.

About Sameh Ragab:

In 1998, Sameh was introduced to CAT tools, and worked directly with TRADOS, Germany, to develop the first version of TRADOS Workbench that supports the Arabic language. Then he kept on extensively learning one CAT tool after another until he finally became a CAT tool consultant and a renowned international trainer and lecturer in that field. He has given workshops and training sessions in more than 12 countries so far; in 2015 only, he took part in 5 different translation conferences in Warsaw, Zagreb, Amsterdam, Bordeaux and Freiburg.
