Last July saw Alan White from The Translation People visit Salford University once again to present the award for Best Translation Student from the University’s MA and BA programmes. The yearly award, presented at the Lowry Centre in Salford Quays, is in recognition of the need to promote excellence in language studies in order to maintain a steady flow of specialist translators and suppliers to meet the needs of our expanding and diverse client base.

Alan White commented, ‘It was a pleasure as always to catch up with the staff at Salford and exchange opinions about the state of the translation market and how their courses are developing to meet the changes taking place in the industry. I was also fortunate enough to meet with one of our biggest clients, who had been working very closely with Salford University to implement new educational software in the faculty of languages.’

The Undergraduate award was won by Thomas Fudge, while the Postgraduate award was won by Ian John Winstanley (pictured here with Alan White, Business Development Manager at The Translation People).
