Applicants are required to demonstrate that they have excellent command of the target language of their chosen workshop (mother-tongue level or language of habitual use) and superior proficiency in the source language.
The summer school is aimed at practising and aspiring translators. We do not require attendees to have experience of the translation industry or to have published.
There is no application deadline but applications will close for a particular language when that workshop reaches capacity. Places in language workshops are limited to 12 and allocated on a first-come-first-served basis.
