About this course

The AI Upskilling Training for Language Services is the first comprehensive training programme based on the needs of SME language service companies.

 

Our objective is to upskill language service companies’ leaders and workforce with the essential knowledge and skills to leverage AI in meeting the evolving needs & expectations of their current & future clients.

 

As we adapt to the ever-changing, increasingly digital business landscape, acquiring a thorough understanding of AI and its applications becomes crucial for driving innovation and maintaining competitiveness.

 

The language industry, by its very nature, underpins the international success of all other sectors – sectors in which clients are learning about AI and expecting AI-enabled solutions from their partners.

 

We believe it is critical to ensure that language service companies and their workforce are equipped with the right AI strategy & skills & for their business and for the delivery of language services in the AI era.

 

The AI Upskilling Training for Language Services comprises:

 

  • A live online instructor-led training course focusing on AI skills and technologies in the business of language services and in the development of language technologies; and
  • Additional, optional bespoke training & services for individual language service companies, tailored to the individual needs of your company and team.

The online training is delivered in 10 sessions over the course of 10 weeks in the autumn of 2024.

 

All modules and sessions can be attended by any and all staff members at the participating companies.

 

The training does not have a set formal qualification level as per UK Qualification Levels.
