Students participating in the two Summer Quarter courses will learn
how to make web-based content and software
available in another language – taking into consideration other cultural
norms and geopolitical issues - and to acquire hands-on experience in
translating webpages, software strings, user
interfaces and help files, allowing target users to interact at every
level in their local language. Courses are taught by Localization
professionals with 10+ years of experience in the field.
