The global
marketplace has changed considerably in the
past few years, especially for the
translation industry. Argentina has become
one of the leading countries that provide
translation services, due mainly to the
excellent professionals produced by its
universities. Cordoba is home to the School
of Languages, National University of
Cordoba, which offers a five-year course of
studies in translation. The School of
Languages is known worldwide for the solid
education its students receive. Its many
graduates have become a great pool of
translators for agencies and language
companies to draw on when they offer their
products and services to the local market.
IMTT have been organizing training events for language
service professionals and business owners since 1999.
