Description

This micro-credential addresses the growing societal and professional need for high-quality English-language texts in a context of increasing internationalisation, academic orientation and multilingual communication, intensified by rapid technological developments. In sectors such as translation, communication, policy, education and research, professionals are expected not only to produce appropriate English, but also to make well-informed decisions about text quality, revision and translation choices, with or without the use of digital tools. There is a clear demand in the labour market for targeted continuing education at master’s level that goes beyond general language proficiency and focuses on translation and editing competence as a form of analytical expertise. In this context, accuracy, style, register, textual conventions and critical reflection on the processes of text production and translation are central. This micro-credential brings these competences together in a clearly defined, academically grounded learning pathway that enables participants to incorporate quality assurance and responsible revision into their professional practice.
