Various strategies that translators at any stage in their careers can use to improve their consistency and accuracy when translating such documents will also be presented.

Dear Randi,
Thank you for your question. The webinar will not concentrate on any one language. However, I have a list of resources, including language-specific ones, that I will hand out after the presentation. I will also be discussing commonly confused word (such as "effectiveness" and "efficacy," but these will be in English.
Have a wonderful day!
Carmen
