      <title>Mondial Translations &amp; Interpreting Partners with JCICS</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">Mondial Translations & Interpreting forms a strategic partnership with the Joint Council for International Children’s Services (JCICS) to provide discounted translation services for their language translations to all JCICS membership.  </p><p>Alexandria, VA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 06/07/2006 --  Mondial Translations is providing adoption-related translations to the JCICS membership.  The JCICS is a non-profit association which advocates on behalf of children in need of permanent families and promotes ethical practices in intercountry adoption.  Today the JCICS represents over 200 organizations who work in fifty-one countries around the globe and support over 75% of all children adopted internationally by U.S. citizens.  <br />
<br />
Many adoption agencies complain about the fact that they have to wait weeks, even months, for their language translations to be completed.  Many agencies struggle with the job of finding and retaining reliable language translators for their adoption paperwork.  In some cases, the translators have completely abandoned the assignment,  leaving agency representatives in a bind and forcing them to begin the process all over again.<br />
<br />
According to Ken Zwerdling, CEO of Mondial, "Since the announcement of our partnership went to JCICS members, we have received dozens of calls from interested adoption agencies.  These organizations now have an accurate, on time and reliable resource for all their language translation needs.  We can assist with all aspects of the process, including translating legal, medical and personal documents."<br />
<br />
The increase in the number of international adoptions creates a huge demand for quality translation services with quick turnaround times.  <br />
<br />
"For the adoptive parent or parents, finding a translation services company that can promptly assist with the paperwork is paramount, " says Zwerdling.  "Ideally, having that portion of the process complete, gets them that much closer to bringing their child home and  becoming a family".<br />

Mondial&apos;s CEO, Ken Zwerdling, believes these partnerships will have long-term benefits for all parties involved.

Mondial&apos;s corporate headquarters are located in Greenville, SC, with regional offices in New York, NY and Daytona Beach, FL.  </p>Greenville, SC -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/13/2006 -- The domain name www.foreigntranslations.com was claimed eight years ago by Mondial Translations &amp; Interpreting CEO Ken Zwerdling.  <br />
<br />
"When Mondial was founded,  we wanted our website domain name to precisely describe our translation services," notes Zwerdling.  "This allows potential customers to incorporate normal translation search words into the actual website address."  It is simply another avenue to allow users of translation services to find our site.<br />
<br />
The Mondial website has been active since 1998.  Minor changes and updates were made over the past few years.  However, the growing demand for language translations in a multitude of languages and a multitude of industries has changed the scope of the market.  <br />
<br />
According to Zwerdling, "Mondial handles a broad range of translation services and we wanted that to be evident as soon as interested customers reached our home page.  We didn&apos;t want someone to have to navigate our site map just to understand our abilities."<br />
<br />
The new website features eight categories for translation services including technical, medical, legal, marketing, website, financial, literary and desktop publishing.  Most documents requiring language translations fall into one or more of these areas.  A few seconds is all it takes to have a broad overview of the type of translation services Mondial offers.  Having a simple, to the point home page makes it more convenient and time-efficient for those seeking language translators.<br />
<br />
The home page offers customers the ability to begin their quest for more information.  Several options are available, including the ability to request a quote online.  Within hours, a customer has received an estimated project proposal and additional information on Mondial&apos;s translation services.  All they have to do is sign and fax and their language translation project is underway.<br />
<br />
The site generates over 30,000 visitors each month. A fresh new look and easier access to information is expected to increase conversions for Mondial&apos;s language translation services.<br />

About Us</p><p>

With over 1000 translators located in 30 countries, Mondial&apos;s expertise encompasses the disciplines of law, science, technology, internet, advertising, manufacturing, medicine, finance and software development. </p><p>
Mondial is on the General Services Administration (GSA) contract schedule with the Federal Government and is a Certified Woman Owned Small Business. </p><p>
Corporate headquarters are located in Greenville, South Carolina with offices in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida and Daytona, Florida.</p>Greenville, SC -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/3/2006 -- It&apos;s the eighth phone call of the morning and Ken Zwerdling has only been in the office thirty minutes.  Half the inquiries are from existing clients.  The other half, well, the other half are from various manufacturing companies searching for language translation services.<br />
<br />
Ken Zwerdling, CEO of Mondial Translations and Interpreting,  receives about 20 calls or emails each week from manufacturers across the United States requesting documents, technical and industrial manuals, contracts, etc.. to be translated into a variety of languages. <br />
<br />
"It&apos;s a growing demand as evidenced by our increase in manufacturing clients. Although we enjoy this surge in the need for language translations, what is scary is how these companies found us in the first place," comments Zwerdling. <br />
<br />
Sometimes it is from a referral – but more often than not  – it is a random selection.  Most individuals have simply searched the internet for a translation services agency and want to know about pricing.  If they are lucky, they will find a qualified language translations service which will provide an accurate and localized translated version of their document. If they wind up with a poorly translated document, it can create more than a world of problems.<br />
<br />
One of the major misconceptions in the language translation arena is that anyone who speaks a second language can translate a technical document.  That could not be further from the truth.  <br />
<br />
Zwerdling sites a language translation assignment gone bad, "Just recently a public relations firm in Columbia, South Carolina hired a local Hispanic DJ to translate a flyer for a local government department.  It was peppered with errors  and the marketing piece had to be recalled."  <br />
<br />
When searching for a company to handle one or many language translation needs, here are some suggestions in getting your translation right the first time:<br />
<br />
• Explain, in detail, your translation need.  What is the subject matter? Who is the target audience?  How many words does the document contain? <br />
• Describe the original document. Is it available in an electronic format? Is it industry specific? Does it require desktop publishing or certification?<br />
• Determine ahead of time which portions of the text do not require translations.  Often times, logos, graphics and slogans do not need to be translated.<br />
• Advise the translation service provider of the time frame in which the project should be completed.  Don&apos;t expect lengthy documents to be returned quickly.  Competent companies have one language translator translate the original document and an equally qualified translator to edit and proofread the assignment. This significantly decreases the chance for error.<br />
• Use a translation service provider that uses translators to translate into only their native language.  Tanslators translate into, not out of, their native languages, and most translators only have one native language. Most translators cannot have the education and experience to translate technical, legal or medical documents in more than one language.<br />
• Avoid companies that provide translations using machine translations.  The accuracy of machine translation (translation performed 100% by computer) is at least 10 years away. Even then, editing and proofreading will still need to be made by human translators Today, machine translation still can\&apos;t disseminate the many nuances of other languages. In addition, documents that are not in an electronic format cannot be translated by machine.<br />
• Understand that there are variations of many languages.  If you are requesting a document to be translated for a Spanish audience in Spain, this translation will be a different version of one for a Hispanic audience in Mexico or Latin America.<br />
• Provide contact names and telephone numbers from your office who can assist with questions about the assignment.<br />
• Find a company who wants to work with you, your deadlines and your budget.<br />
