CPD for translators  The bigger picture: new developments in the profession changes in legislation, standards … Sharing Discussion Antidote to isolation

CPD for translators – compulsory or voluntary? Source: Fédération Internationale des Traducteurs (FIT) Survey Report by Jiri Stejskal, Ph. D. (July 2005) 63 translators’ associations surveyed in 2004  compulsory in 5 associations (China, USA, British Columbia, Poland, Mexico)  voluntary in 5 associations (Alberta, 2 UK associations, Romania, New Zealand)  plans for new system (Australia)

Reported reasons for taking part in CPD Source: ITI Survey of CPD Needs, % - ‘to learn how to use new technology’ 69% - ‘to improve subject knowledge’ 70% - ‘to meet other translators/interpreters and compare methods, share tips’

Difficulties faced by freelancers Source: ITI Survey of CPD Needs, 2005 cost (loss of earnings) time distance very specific needs Possible solution: e-learning? But … is this an antidote to isolation?

How universities can help host CPD events attend and teach on CPD events invite translators as guest lecturers advise on new teaching formats (e-learning?) Thank you!
