 
Quality Assured Translator Approval Process™Translation is a profession in its own right. In addition to a degree or post graduate degree in translation, translators need a broad set of skills - from the obvious linguistic ability, to being able to cope with a wide range of software applications and most importantly, being a good business partner. Less than one in ten of the professional translators who start the screening and evaluation process become a Blue South approved translator. To ensure that only the very best translators from around the World are selected, the Blue South translator approval process comprises;
1. Screening:All potential translators are initially screened against a very particular set of criteria. This screening ranks translators on areas which include;
2. Evaluation:Short-listed candidates are then evaluated in more detail using methods which include a combination of references, independent evaluations and more detailed screening.
3. Identification of strengths:Via the screening and evaluation process, we can determine the real subject area strengths of the translators, e.g. IT software, mechanical, pharmaceuticals, copywriting, etc.
4. Ongoing assessment:As required by our certified Quality Management System (ISO 9001), all approved translators are subject to ongoing assessment. How do I get started? |
