About the Campaign
The “Quality in Translation” campaign is run on a non-profit basis by industry professionals with the goal of improving quality levels across the industry. The approach taken by the campaign differs from that offered by industry standards (such as the EN 15038:2006 European standard). We simply feel that while such standards may not do any actual harm, their application to translation services offers a false sense of quality and is driven by a fundamental misunderstanding of how a quality translation is “assembled”. Quality in translation is NOT achieved by following procedures, it is achieved by developing and working with professional translators. No matter how good your procedures, a poor translator is never likely to produce a quality translation.
