Description of the Translation Program
The purpose of our program is to give students an excellent understanding of the economics, contemporary society and political organization of the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom, as those are countries where English is spoken, as well as courses in the fundamentals of politics, economics, international affairs, and comprehensive courses in translation technique.
The students will also receive the tools necessary to successfully pass the Sworn Translation Test provided by the Ministry of Education of Guatemala; i.e., grammar analysis, both in English and Spanish, and spelling and grammar rules, all this in a ten-month period.g
