The
METM11 program is almost complete as posted on our website. One of the threads this year will focus on research
and its practical implications for language service providers. Other
topics will include computer-assisted translation tools, advice about starting
out in specialist areas, an introduction to social media for language
professionals, translation editing and revision, and much more. The plenary
speakers – Dorothy Kenny and Ros Schwartz
– will look at revision from two different perspectives. The abstracts
are posted on the program
page of our website. We are continuing to accept proposals for poster
presentations. For
details please visit the call for
participation. You’re
still in time to take advantage of the reduced early registration fee
(deadline: 12 September). For details about registration see the registration
page. Barcelona
is a vibrant, cosmopolitan city with much to offer. Information about travel
and hotels can be found at Local
information. Mediterranean Editors and Translators (MET) is an
association of language service providers and a forum for translators and
editors who work mainly into or with English. Through MET we exchange views and
experiences on promising practices and keep up with relevant research. What
unites us is a belief in peer-generated continuing professional development,
consistent with practice in the disciplines we started from and in the
knowledge societies we serve. |
