Roevin is a longstanding corporate member of the The Institute of Translation & Interpreting (ITI) which was founded in 1986 as the only independent professional association of practising translators and interpreters in the UK. It is now one of the primary sources of information on these services to government, industry, the media and the general public. It aims to promote the highest standards in the profession. The ITI also has a very well-developed system of networks and regional groups of which some Roevin staff are members. The regional groups organise professional and social events which share good practice and update members on the latest trends in the industry.
West Midlands Regional ITI Group members Natasha Williams and Gail Owen from the Birmingham office took part in the group’s annual winter walk to the stone houses at Kinver Edge. The 6-mile walk and dinner provided an excellent opportunity for discussion and networking for the group which includes freelance translators and translation industry professionals.
