Spanish to English translations [PRO]
Bus/Financial - Business/Commerce (general) / Business Information
Spanish term or phrase: hoja de vida institucional
It is a document containing information about this company, which happens to be a social research and market research NGO. It is made up of the following sections:
I. MISIÓN INSTITUCIONAL
II. OBJETIVOS
III. DIRECCIÓN (here they mention the board of directors and the senior management).
IV. RECURSOS (here they mention in general terms their permanent staff and the pool of professionals that work for the NGO in specific projects)
V. PRINCIPALES CLIENTES
VI. PRINCIPALES TRABAJOS REALIZADOS. Includes the main projects they've worked in and other.
- Estudios Socioeconómicos.
- Encuestas de Opinión y Mercado
- Medio Ambiente y Otros
- Censos
- Publicaciones

Very similar information organised in a quite similar way is shown in the NGO's website:

I've thought of "Institutional Record" but I'm not sure if that happens to be a term commonly used in English-speaking countries.

I would also use "About Us" if the contents were much shorter.

Please help.

agree  Taña Dalglish: This is what I would say as well. When you speak about companies, you normally hear about the Company´s Profile, Mission Statement, etc. My 2 cents. Un abrazo Catherine.

agree  Carlos Teran: I agree with this proposal, because NGO's are not "business" companies "per se". Although in sake of language clarity I would go for "Institution profile" since it refers to the document's title.
