Introduction to Translation Management Systems (TMS)

[Manuel]

We are pleased to introduce our second version of the Introduction to Translation Management Systems (TMS)

This is a self-study course meant to introduce community members to the basics of how to use translation tools. It is a series of videos and activities focused on how to work on translation tasks, specifically using Phrase TMS, our tool of choice at TWB.

The course is now available online at this link .

You can go through a topic or module at your own pace, whenever you have spare time. In total, the course should take you about 3 hours to complete.

What will I learn?

The course has three modules:

1. An introduction to translation management systems (TMS), the common features of computer-assisted translation tools (CAT tools) and Phrase.
2. A deeper exploration of practical aspects of the translation process, divided into three steps: before, during, and after translating.
3. How to make use of other useful features provided by Phrase for an easier and more efficient translation work.

1. Access the TWB Learning Center
