Hello Everybody,

I have been working as a full time freelance translator since 2005 in the language pair of EnglishUrdu. I started translating in 1999 as part time without having any formal education related to translation. Now, I have good business but I feel I should have a formal translation education as well that could be a diploma/certificate/degree from any of the UK's institution.

I have searched the internet but can't find any UK institution offering my language pair i.e. EnglishUrdu. I am wondering if anyone could kindly let me know the names of such UK's institution. I mean any UK institution offering any type of translation Dip/Cert/Degree in the language pair of EnglishUrdu.

Thank you very much in advance for all of your help. ▲ Collapse

I suggest you contact Dr Amina Yaqin, University of London School of African and Oriental Studies. Dr. Yaqin will probably be able to point you in the right direction.
