Great information that ensures professional certification.
nice clarification..thank you.
What is the procedure to get this ATA Certificate?
what are the requirements for taking the test?
Go to their website and check it out.
Honestly, unless the ATA starts lobbying for organizations like USCIS, courts, and other relevant government agencies to start requiring ATA certification I don't see much of a value in getting this certification. With today's technology and the aforementioned organizations flexibilities when it comes to accepting translations all I can see is totally unqualified "professionals" who in many occasions are not even bilingual simply taking over certified translators work and using Google translate to help themselves. I see this every day with many "document preparers." On top of this, to register for the exam you have to be an ATA member, which means you have to shell out close to $200 to even know when the test is going to take place, which believe me, it's not very often. I learned this the hard way last year when I spent $300+ to register around September just to find out that the next test wasn't even going to be announced until April of the following year. Once you are an ATA member, registering to take the exam costs $525. YES, you read it right. Like the video says, after you have spend all of this money to get certified you have to keep paying your annual membership and on top of it pay for other continuing education credits. Not sure about others, but I simply don't get enough business from document translation to account for this expense.
You seem like a stone cold narcissist.
