If you’ve been following this blog, you know that I am always interested in new technology, ideas, and tricks that make the life of a translator and interpreter easier. You also know that I am a big fan of techforword – THE resource for language experts who want to make the best use of what’s available out there.

Josh and Nora have a whole slew of courses and webinars on offer, as well as regular summits with leading experts in the various fields of translation and interpretation, and not only concerning technology. In addition, there are live online sessions every month on a wide range of topics, also available on the techforword YouTube channel.

The best part, though, is the community, called techforword insiders. For a monthly fee, you have access to even more cool stuff like networking sessions, special training sessions and webinars, as well as fun activities (we even did a game night once), and you get to connect with like-minded people from all over the globe.

As one of the founding members way back in February of 2021, I was especially excited to get to vote on the new insiders logo this year. As a thank you, Josh decided to send out some insiders swag: a coffee mug or a water bottle. Since I couldn’t decide, I asked to get both (I know…). The package finally arrived and I am so thrilled! The mug is of course sitting on my desk as I’m writing this.

If you’re interested in becoming part of an awesome community and being on the up-and-up about useful (and fun) technology and skills for translators and interpreters, come and join the techforword insiders community. If you are still studying, there is also a discounted student membership available. I can only say, it really is well worth it!
