Compliance Translation Certification™

Not all translators are created equal. At ForeignExchange we pride ourselves on finding and hiring only the best.

While many translation companies boast of having thousands of translators located around the world, ForeignExchange relies on significantly fewer—a few hundred at most.

Translation is truly an artform, demanding a strong balance of linguistic and technical skills. Few translators possess the skills and industry focus necessary to work on the "mission critical" print and web projects in which we specialize.

 
Certification requirements

Requirements for becoming a Compliance Translation Certified™ translator include:

  • 3+ years experience as a professional linguist
  • 2+ years of subject or industry-specific experience
  • experience translating more than 100,000 words in the specified field or industry
  • outstanding references
  • strong track record of maintaining strict schedules and rapid turnaround

While these strict qualifications limit the number of translators at our disposal, we actually find the process saves our clients time.

By using pre-qualified translators we run into fewer mistakes and rarely encounter scheduling conflicts. Experienced translators know how to manage their workload and their schedule. They also have the wisdom to raise the right project-specific questions early enough in the process to allow time for corrections and editing.

If your industry has zero room for error, please contact us to view samples of our work. We would also be happy to refer you to a few of our translators so you can see for yourself what sets ForeignExchange apart from the competition.
