Translation technology
Workshops, training and presentations
Through RWS Campus, we deliver the latest Trados
translation cloud technology, ensuring students can
access the platform, regardless of whether they are in a
classroom or studying remotely. In addition to supplying
detailed guides and training, we o昀昀er suggested core
content tailored to support a balanced curriculum that
enhances the use of translation technology. In FY23,
we have expanded our o昀昀erings for Academic Partners
signi昀椀cantly – all partners now bene昀椀t from Trados Team,
which is based on our latest cloud technology, alongside
Trados Studio and MultiTerm. 356 of our partners are now
making the most of this latest, improved o昀昀ering.
We also partner with Academic Institutions on events
and tailored workshops, training sessions and lectures,
to enable students to gain further skills, insight and
understanding into the trends and realities of the
industry. In FY23 we hosted or participated in more than
100 events across 30+ countries, including the following
interactions:
•
•
Job and careers fairs

Academic institutions teaching Trados gain exclusive
access to a supportive community for both educators
and students through the RWS community. Currently, we
support over 29,000 students with Trados technology
through RWS Campus. Our Top Student Award
programme, initiated in 2016, has led to nine outstanding
students being nominated by partner institutions to
receive a complimentary Trados licence for their future
careers this year.

We also provide a specialised academic package for
Language Weaver, enabling institutions to work with
cutting-edge AI-based machine translation, including
the capability to train their own engines with speci昀椀c
content. Partners can utilise Passolo, another product of
our localisation tool portfolio, for specialised software
localisation education, and we have rolled out new
e-learning guides to complement the training the
students receive.
Studio is de昀椀nitely a trendsetter in the 昀椀eld
“ Trados
of translation. It facilitates the translation and
localisation process, making it signi昀椀cantly quicker
and more e昀昀ective. This is the 昀椀rst CAT Tool that I have
dealt with and de昀椀nitely the best. The programme's
user-friendly interface appeals to me. Consistency
is achieved by the use of translation memories,
and having access to free or personal glossaries
signi昀椀cantly raises the quality of the translation. With a
Trados Studio licence, I have the chance
to establish myself as a competitive
and in-demand professional in the
translation industry. Trados Studio
is a real game changer.

In April 2023 we held our RWS Campus online event, which
received over 1,900 registrations from 100+ countries.
During this event we shared insight on a vast range
of topics, including roles in localisation, the latest AI
information, and technology deep dives. Using a virtual
delivery platform, we were able to reach more people
from more locations, supporting our goal to ensure
information is accessible by all.
Quote from a student who attended RWS Campus Online 2023
Together, our tailored internships, technology, workshops,
training sessions and lectures, make up our unique valueproposition, which helps us collaborate with the academic
world to lay the foundations needed to prepare students
for the professional world of localisation.
