Welcome to Apogee Certification! Apogee tests and verifies translators in all languages of the world. We ensure that Certified translators are not only able to deliver excellent translations, but that they are professional businesspeople who quickly respond to clients' needs. (Full text of the speech is available here.)
There are three primary criteria for Certification:
Quality of Translation. Apogee Certifies translators who take whole phrases and basic concepts and convert them whole into their target language. Word-by-word translators need not apply.
Experience. All Certified translators have worked before on similar projects receiving high marks from the coordinators and producers who hired them.
Punctuality and Deadlines. All Certified translators make their deadlines, rapidly answer emails and texts, and are professional in how they approach their business.
There are many tens, if not hundreds, of thousands of translators in the world. How can a publisher recognize the ones they can trust with their properties? How can the especially great translators of the world differentiate themselves from each other?
Apogee Certification is the answer.
