Abstract

The continued growth of the language industries has boosted the emergence of scattered training solutions in the field of Translation, unveiling the clear gap between the needs of industry and the solutions provided by academia. The FOIL project (Formación Online para las Industrias del Lenguaje - Online Training for the Language Industries) aims to develop an innovative, online training model that takes advantage of current technological developments to offer new, industry-oriented, research-based qualifications. The main objective of the training model, integrated by five independent but complementary modules, is to meet needs of the language industries, lowering barriers for those who cannot access current qualification opportunities either for personal, economic, geographic, or any other reason, or looking for reskilling opportunities.
