On the 5th of May 2025, the socotrans research group organized a workshop to discuss ongoing field research projects on translation competence and expertise in the workplace. Maria Annukka Jakkula (Tampere University) gave interesting insights on “Competency mapping of paraprofessional translators in situated contexts”, and Daniela Schlager (University of Vienna) presented her ongoing project with Jenni Laaksonen (Tampere University) “If you can't measure it, you can't improve it"– Calculative practices in the construction of translation expertise”.
Thanks for the inspiring exchange!
