Hi Jerzy,
your second time schedule looks much better than the first - we'll all be climbing the walls if we have to wait until 2 pm for lunch after having breakfast at 8! Five hours concentrating with only 30 minutes break would be too strenuous to be productive IMHO.
Looking forward to this training session,
Jill

Hi Jerzy
My plane leaves Edinburgh at 2015.
I think your 2nd timetable for the session looks fine. I agree with Gillian that lunch at 2pm would have been too long after breakfast! If the main questions and answers are left until the end, then those who have to go will get all the training, and if anything, will only miss some of the questions and answers.

| The sessions will not be shorter, but just otherwise ordered | Oct 18, 2006 |
I think one and a half hour for basics shall be enough, that´s all and that´s the only major change. Pls take into account, that I will also need to drink something in between to keep my vocal cords oiled (and I promise not to drink this typical Scotish liquid, at least not until we are done )

Dear Jerzy,
I like the schedule that you have come up with. Just for your info: my plane back to Franfurt leaves at 18:15. I suppose that means I have to take my leave at 16:00. I am not worried that I will miss too much, because in all likelihood by that time I shall be approaching cerebral "overload".
Kind regards,
Igor

| Important information | Oct 26, 2006 |
For the training purposes I shall prepare some files, which you will then get on Sunday to play with. The files will have different source languages. Nevertheless, it will be enough, if any of us has English as one of the languages defined in his Workbench. Other languages are not important - but please take care that you have English among your translation languages.
Thank you

Hi Jerzy!
So please could you tell us if there is anything we have to install or download or whatever?
You know, I am really a beginner and I do not know if I have this or not...
Many greetings from sunny and warm (24°C) Nürnberg,
Helena

(I do not literally mean "translate the whole file" - we shall look at the results of some operations)
- Translatiing Word file with Tageditor
- Translating Excel file with Tageditor
- Translating Powerpoint file with Tageditor
- Converting and translating DTP files (QuarkXPress, Pagemaker, Framemaker)
- Creating a termbase using an Excel file
With all these operations we will be using Trados commands and shortcuts.
I will also speak about some possible traps and show solutions for problems.
The above order must not necessarily be kept as given here. This is only intended to give you the complete overwiew about the planning.
I have prepared sample files for all the above actions. There is also a prepared TM EN-US to EN-GB, so that´s why I asked you to install Trados with English as one of your languages.
CU in Edinburgh

Even though I was already familiar with Trados, thanks to your training session, I was able to solve a number of problems I have had for years and learnt very useful tips.
Thank you also for all the work you put into this: I don't know my trainers who are prepared to make a training session last for an extra 3 hours!!

Although I am a beginner it was very helpful and interesting for me as well.
I can only just repeat what English2French said already. Thanks for the work and effort you put into the session.

I agree with the previous two contributors. This was very valuable training for next to nothing. We would have had to pay a fortune for this info elsewhere.
