Introduction to Legal Translation

Deadline for registration: September 16, 2025

This webinar is intended for generalists who would like to become more confident in translating the occasional legal text for their clients.

During the first half of the webinar, you will briefly learn about the legal systems in Canada, including the differences between common law and civil law, and some basic legal terminology. You will also learn how to perform basic legal research, using CanLII and other online tools, to help you with general legal translation projects.

During the second half of the webinar, you will discuss and translate a general legal text, such as an article about a current legal topic.

It is highly recommended that participants take this workshop before taking any other legal translation workshop.
