The first IATI Summer School "SummerTrans I" was held in 2004, the Summer School "SummerTrans VIII" in 2019. “SummerTrans IX” is going to be arranged in September 2022.
Workshop Audiovisual Translation
In June 2006 a workshop on audiovisual translation took place at the Department of Translation Studies at the University of Innsbruck.
Planned special and intensive courses:
Conference Interpreting
A highly qualified team of experts affords the participants the opportunity to make first attempts in the field of interpreting but also provides intensive training courses in conference interpreting.
EuroCom courses on the basis of language intercomprehension
Based on the the linguistic competence of the mother tongue and working languages of the translator (which create the so-called bridge languages) the EuroCom strategy facilitates to expand translation expertise to further languages, related to the bridge languages within a short time. Attending a EuroCom intense course, a French translator for instance can acquire translation competence from Portuguese, Spanish or Italian into one’s mother tongue. Of particular interest are EuroCom courses for languages of new EU member states, using e.g. Russian as the bridge language in order to acquire translation competence from Polish, Czech, Slovenian, etc. into one’s mother tongue.
e-learning
translation training on-line for translators and interpreters especially in the field of various kinds of audiovisual translation.
