Effective Translation to Reach Learners Worldwide

Developing accessible training includes making it available in the languages your learners speak. In this episode, we talk to Nick Strozza and Larry Pilotto from Interpro Translation Solutions to understand how to ensure that eLearning translations are successful.

Show notes:

Interpro Translation Solutions shares best practices for eLearning translations, including the importance of early collaboration on the project.

• Early Engagement is Key: Engage with your translation partner early in the project to accommodate localization needs and ensure translations are not an afterthought.
• Localization vs. Translation: Understanding the difference between localization and translation is important. Localization adapts content beyond direct translation, considering cultural nuances, graphics, and formatting to make content feel native to the audience.
• Comprehensive Planning: Accurately scope the translation project to avoid surprises. This includes analyzing all elements of eLearning courses, such as audio, video, and text, and to plan for any challenges.
• Technology and Trends: Embracing emerging technologies and trends in translation, like translation memory tools and AI, can enhance the efficiency and consistency of translated content, though human oversight remains essential for quality.
