Description

Download and read the Frequently Asked Questions document from the ‘Additional Files and Resources’ section below (click the arrow to the right to view the files) and submit your online application (expression of interest only, no fees required at this stage) for the course you wish as listed below.

This course meets the minimum prerequisite training requirements set by NAATI for the Certified Translator test and is designed to prepare candidates for this test by providing guidance in translating techniques; it does not aim to produce fully trained translators. This course is for candidates who are already in (or are well placed to be in) translating or language-related roles within a workplace or community.

Students will complete 4 units and 7 assessments over 12 weeks which will cover:
- Ethics in Interpreting and Translating
- Preparation for an Interpreting or Translating assignment
- Building glossaries
- Translating techniques

It is highly recommended that students allocate additional time during the week for private study.

The course is delivered in English and students are provided with the opportunity to receive language-specific feedback through a sample translation (not for assessment purposes).

South Australian State Government funding subsidies apply for this course. Eligibility criteria apply. The full course cost applies for students who are not eligible for State Government funding subsidies. Course payment will be arranged at a later date, after your application has been received.

NOTE: Applications will be allocated to courses on the basis of language priority and demand. Applicants will be notified of receipt of their application and of language availability. Please refer to the NAATI website for upcoming test dates (www.naati.com.au).
