I realize that On-Dossier is a way for me. However, like BC, I may encounter problems because most of my acquaintances are competitors so that they could decline to endorse me.

TOPIC STARTER
Canadians seems not to be ahead of American Oct 31, 2012

It seems that Canadian association is not going ahead of American counterpart.

Is even an exceptional seating with keyboarded setting not available for handicapped translators?

I am not too sure if ATA grants a license to CTTIC, as ATA spent a lot of money and hours to develop their own system.

I may try IoL.
