In addition, we often translate and localize PowerPoint slides, user guides, online help directories, e-learning systems, learning materials, and other content for the education industry.  

Addressing the Pain Points of the Education Industry

Cultural disparities: Our clients cover hundreds of countries and regions, which are home to various languages and cultures. For example, Chinese-speaking audiences can be subdivided into Simplified Chinese, Hong Kong Traditional Chinese, and Taiwan Traditional Chinese users. Indian languages include Hindi, Urdu, Tamil, and various local languages. To tailor to the habits of local users, localization for languages and cultures has to be performed strategically based on the characteristics of users in the target regions. Project complexity: Coordinating education projects is highly challenging, requiring oversight of translation, website localization, software localization, game/app localization, and multimedia localization. Demanding localization requirements: The education industry has a huge responsibility. Therefore, the quality of translations is of the utmost importance. Educational corporations spend significant time creating engaging audiovisual content to grab the interest of users and gain a competitive edge. As such, in addition to accurate translations, it is critical that content is laid out well and suits the usage habits of the target region.
