In the language professions, there is the contradiction to be both regional experts and citizens of the world in needing to share a message with multiple divergent entities. These identities are crucial for multinational companies whose communications can be very time-sensitive and have major implications on everything they do. For this reason, it's important to have a trusted and experienced translator or interpreter for your business. In this episode of the ATA Podcast, we hear from Marita Propato, who has a career that spans decades working with clients ranging from large tech firms to the International Olympic Committee. From press releases to the classroom and from machine translation to gender-inclusive language, listen in to Marita's journey and experiences that have shaped her accomplished career, and take notes as she advises how to navigate translating corporate and internal communications.

When it comes to healthcare, not everyone considers the uniqueness of dentistry in terms of the training and expertise it requires from dentists and hygienists. This distinction manifests itself through the language used in the field, which requires careful research and attention to translate effectively. As well, dentistry tends to be on the forefront of medical advancements, meaning new treatments and terminology develop frequently. In this episode of Inside Specialization, Anne Conner speaks with Mario Muchacho, DDS, about how he pursued a career in dentistry but wasn't enthusiastic about all aspects of the practice. Eventually, Mario found that his true calling was to work as a translator within this field. Learn how Mario made the transition, what he's learned and experienced, what he would have done differently, and more on this episode of the ATA Podcast!

Medical translation is a large umbrella, and it’s important to not overlook the many specialized, unique fields that stem from it! One of them is the important type of medical translation that deals not with human patients, but with our beloved small and large animals: veterinary translation.

It wasn't long until her professional backgrounds mixed and she specialized in veterinary translation.

Without a mentor, how do you expect to change and grow as a professional? That's where ATA's Mastermind Program comes in! Translators and interpreters often go into business understanding that finding and retaining clients will be hard work. What many fail to see, however, is the difficulty in running a business alone and not always knowing what to do next. ATA’s Mastermind Program offers peer-based mentoring designed to help you learn and develop professionally by working together in small groups to share knowledge on specific topics and work collaboratively to achieve your learning goals. In this episode of the ATA Podcast, co-host Andie Ho interviews Dolores R. Guiñazú, a two-time participant in the Mastermind Program. Dolores details her experience in the program, the professional and networking benefits she’s acquired, and why ATA members should apply. As a free resource for ATA members, this episode has all the reasons why you should consider applying to be a mastermind!
