From June 11th to June 16th, 2018, the Department of Interpreting and Translation of the University of Bologna at Forlì will host the SHIFT in Orality Summer School in Remote Interpreting.
The SHIFT team is proud to announce that the results of the market survey carried out within the project are online!
The SHIFT market survey (Intellectual Output 3 of the project), lead by project partner VEASYT, aimed at studying the current and potential market of remote interpreting in the three SHIFT member countries (Italy, Spain, the UK) and on two different sub-groups, in order to analyse both the supply and the demand of remote interpreting services.
The final event of the SHIFT project will be hosted by the University of Surrey, Centre for Translation Studies in Guildford (UK), on July 13th and 14th, 2018. Save the date!
