Collaborative translation practices

APG5604

Synopsis

Translators and language professionals in dynamic digital landscapes and are increasingly required to do more than translate texts. Translators work in varied roles within translation and localisation processes, including project managers, editors, revisers, strategists, localisers and terminologists. In this unit, you will explore translation project management covering the pre-translation, translation and post-translation stages, with a focus on collaborative translation workflows utilising cloud-based crowdsourcing and volunteer translation.  This unit will require you to apply project management skills and principles to working in teams on an industry-facing collaborative translation activity.
