The world is constantly transforming, evolving and changing shape, like water being poured into a new container. The labour market is certainly not exempt from these changes, requiring continuous updating and personal growth. The translation industry, and language services in general, is the belle of this ball. Translators around the world and from all walks of life need to stay up to date with industry developments, new technologies and much more. ASTW develops and provides its own courses precisely to meet these needs.

MY PERSONAL EXPERIENCE
My name is Stefano Gaffuri, I’m a translator and SEO copywriter. When I began working as a translator after earning my university degree, I had many doubts about what to do. After getting in touch with ASTW, they suggested I take the course related to the world of patent translation. It was truly useful to someone like me with solid translation foundations but lacking knowledge in this field. The course isn’t simply to provide a basic understanding: it provides an in-depth overview of the field, offering theoretical and practical insights and valuable advice, not just for beginners.
It may seem like a biased judgement … so let me add: the proof is in the pudding!
