IoL Diploma courses
The Chartered Institute of Linguists (IoL) Diploma in Translation is a professional translation qualification which has been run since 1989.
The IoL Diploma is one of the few examinations that allows translators working from Spanish into English (and other language combinations) to show that they have reached a professional level of competence.
We offer an face-to-face course in Barcelona to prepare you for it, an online IoL course, as well as a refresher course.
Our courses provide practical guidance to both beginners and experienced translators.
