Thanks a lot for this free and very useful event.

While not being able to attend each session for obvious reasons (I am thinking of taking a day off next year!), what I saw and heard being discussed was extremely useful for all translators. Thanks for organising this interesting and relevant event, and for the possibility of downloading individual presentations on demand!

---

Thank you very much to all the people who collaborated in such a way to made possible this event! It was excellent!
I am very pleased to have attended some of the conferences; I learnt a lot and also was inspired by listening about new tools and tendencies to be used in the translation area.

---

Great event, lots to choose from :)

---

Great event, really interesting and unusual tips & tricks too!
Translation tools and strategies for freelance were, imho, the best points.

---

The event was great! Although I couldn't attend every single session for work reasons, I'm thrilled that we get to have access to the content for another 90 days. I loved how varied the topics were. Well done, ProZ, thank you for a great translator's day!

13:25 Jun 6, 2014	Nicole Y. Adams, M.A.: 117097	All	Hi all, sorry to jump into the discussion so late. Here are some more ideas for diversification that are discussed on my book 'Diversification in the Language Industry' (I'll list them if that's ok?).
13:26 Jun 6, 2014	Peter Motte: 30753	All	Well: the fact is that lots of Chinese are under high pressure to get a university degree. To be admitted at universtiy demands succeeding in an entrance exam. So almost all of the students of the teacher are teenagers wanting to succeed those entrance examens.
