I really enjoyed the memoQ workshop offered through the memoQ University Program. It was practical, easy to follow, and showed how intuitive and user-friendly the tool is. I’m very grateful for the opportunity and would highly recommend it to other students.

memoQ is a great app for translators because of the wide variety of tools it offers. Although it may be a bit complicated to understand at first, it really enhances the translation process!

Agustina Dalla Fontana

student, ISPI Estela Guinle de Cervera

I found the memoQ course to be a significant step forward in my translation knowledge. I highly recommend it to fellow translators; it offers excellent features like quality assurance and translation memory, which stores translated segments for reuse, increasing consistency and speed. The deeper you dive into this CAT tool, the more impressive its capabilities become!

memoQ was a great surprise to me, as I didn’t know much about CAT tools before being introduced to it. When it was presented to us, I found it surprisingly easy and intuitive to use, even as a beginner. As I continued working with it, I realized how helpful features like translation memories and term bases are for maintaining consistency and improving efficiency.

memoQ has helped me a lot with my translation assignments, especially when it comes to creating TMs and TBs to store important terms, so I don’t need to memorize them. My work became more organized and fluid.

The memoQ training was extremely valuable, as many translation companies rely on this CAT tool and expect translators to be proficient in it. I found it especially useful for working with large documents, which can often be challenging in terms of formatting and layout. It is also quite an intuitive tool once you become familiar with it, and one of its main advantages is that most CAT tools work in a fairly similar way, which makes it much easier when discovering new ones. In addition, it proved very helpful during several translation projects in the master’s program, as well as during the virtual agency week.

For me, memoQ is really a very good CAT tool. I find it easy to use and practical on a daily basis, especially because the features are clear and quickly accessible. Even without being an expert, it’s easy to get the hang of it. It helps me a lot to translate more efficiently, thanks to translation memories and suggestions, which fill in small gaps. On top of that, it remains very complete and professional despite its simplicity. So far, I’ve never had any problems with it, so my experience has been very positive.

I am very grateful for the opportunity given to my fellow students and me to use memoQ through a free academic license. Over the past months, I have used this CAT tool regularly as part of my studies. I found memoQ intuitive and efficient, particularly thanks to its translation memories, term bases, and quality assurance features, which greatly improved the consistency and productivity of my work. The training we received in CAT tools was also very valuable, especially during our “virtual agency” week, where we could apply these skills in a professional-like environment. This experience has been highly beneficial for my training, and I sincerely thank you for providing students with access to such a useful tool.

Alexandra Malysheva

student, Sorbonne Nouvelle University

As a student of the course Computer-Assisted Translation at the Department of French and Francophone Studies, University of Zadar, I found the memoQ University training extremely valuable for my academic and professional development. The training provided a clear and practical introduction to translation technologies and helped me better understand how CAT tools can improve consistency, efficiency, and quality in the translation process. What I appreciated most was the opportunity to work hands-on with memoQ and become familiar with its main features in a structured learning environment. The training complemented the course very well, as it allowed me to connect theoretical knowledge with practical skills directly applicable to real translation tasks. Overall, this experience gave me greater confidence in using translation software and a better insight into the tools and workflows commonly used in the translation industry. I believe the memoQ University training is an excellent addition to translator education and a highly useful resource for students preparing for professional work.
