Upcoming ATA Webinars

ATA is closing out its spring schedule with two must-attend webinars:

The Price is Right—Pricing Strategies for Your Translation Services
with Tess Whitty on April 28 at 12 p.m. EDT

Learn the most effective strategies for calculating your target rate, setting minimum fees, and establishing compensation for additional services. Plus examine ways to negotiate, raise, and adjust rates—and get presenter Tess Whitty’s take on what to do about those pesky “free test translations.”

Copyediting for Translators—Making Serious Writing Sing
with Carolyn Yohn on May 18 at 11 a.m. EDT

What are the key elements to maintain when preserving the author’s voice in a new language? Presenter Carolyn Yohn will share the basics of style and grammar that develop an author’s “oomph,” with practical tips for making their work sing in your translation.

And the summer webinar schedule is on track to offer more interesting speakers and topics, including Paula Arturo on negotiating, David Rumsey and Ted Wozniak on the ATA antitrust policy, Eve Bodeux on the French language spelling reforms, Barbara Inge Karsch on terminology management, and Katharine Allen on healthcare interpreting.
