Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (1): Julie Barber

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

monitoring committee

Unless there is a problem I haven't spotted... 'monitoring' is a normal translation of 'suivi'.

Thanks
neutral Tony M : Would only work if we knew for sure there was something specific being followed up.

that's why confidence level 3 was selected. It seemed to me that this is pretty common to have a follow-up committe to ascertain implementation of agreements or prepare reporst regarless of assignments
neutral Angela Dickson (X) : follow-up would only really be relevant if this were about hospitals - and I don't think it is

Angela, perhaps in this conext that we dont know much about. Not necessarily hospitals I believe. What are the functions of this committee?

supervising committee

Hello,

This is a committee which monitors and oversees (handles) the matter at hand.

You could say "monitoring committee", but I prefer "supervising committee."

That said, I've seen "Monitoring/Supervising Committee."

I hope this helps.
