MICATA
Mid-America Chapter of the
American Translators Association
MICATA is a group of
professional translators, interpreters and language professionals that focuses its activities and
service in Mid-America. MICATA exists for the benefit of translators, interpreters
and language professionals, and for
those who use our services.
MICATA's major
objectives are to provide a forum for translation, interpreting and
other language professionals to share ideas and expertise through our
meetings, fora linguarum, website and newsletter, and to keep our professional members informed and up to date
through our annual symposium on translation and interpreting. We strive to
formulate and maintain standards of professional ethics, practices and
competence in the fields of translation and interpreting, to protect the
rights and interests of professional translators and interpreters, and to
improve the standards, accuracy and quality of translation and
interpreting. |
