About Apuntes Online

If you are a language professional working in both English and Spanish, you may be interested in us, Apuntes Online. We are the continuation of Intrades-Apuntes, Inc.  We have just dropped the Inc, not the Ink.

InTradES stands for Intérpretes y Traductores de Español (Spanish Interpreters and Translators), a non-profit organization committed to improving our profession. InTradES is the continuation of SpanSIG, a previous group that operated as the Spanish Special Interest Group of the New York Circle of Translators which, in turn, is affiliated with the American Translators Association. Since 1988, the association that was SpanSIG and became InTradES-Apuntes, Inc. has organized seminars, workshops and lectures of interest to language professionals, in addition to publishing our journal 'Apuntes'.

Apuntes Online encompasses not only translators and interpreters, but also welcomes language professionals committed to excellence in communication: writers, editors, journalists, advertisers, and so on.

With the time and effort volunteered by a group of colleagues, we aim to create a platform to help protect our interests and ensure quality standards.

Come and join us!
