Language of Delivery: English

In this series of workshops, the Graduate Diploma in Legal Translation at McGill University invites you to discover different dimensions of professions at the crossroad of law and languages. We offer both introductory workshops to key professions, such as legal translation and court interpreting, as well as workshops on highly specialized issues that will better meet the needs of experienced jurilinguists.

Marketing, networking, PR, referrals, email solicitation, RFPs, personal brand building… What works, what doesn’t? In this workshop, translator and agency founder Mathieu Gautier reveals proven business development strategies to thrive as a legal translator.

Participants will learn:

  • How to optimize their business development efforts
  • Where and how to find the best clients
  • How to attract them
  • How to amplify word of mouth

This initiative is supported by Justice Canada's Access to Justice in Both Official Languages Support Fund.
