Hello All,

This may be an old issue, so pardon me if this is repetitive. However, can anyone speak to the value of Proz certification vs any others?

I am not a certified translator currently and frankly I have never found it to be much of an issue until recently. I translate French and Italian to English and only rarely have I ever seen this as a requirement from EU agencies or clients. However, if there is a value I am missing in terms of more business, then I would be interested.

All that said, are people finding that Proz certification is becoming accepted equally as say, ATA certification?

Your thoughts welcome...
