LIND Expert Group

LIND Expert Group LIND - Language Industry Expert Group - promotes the importance and value of translation to society as a whole.

It supports best practice, building a knowledge bank of excellence for the community of individuals and organisations in the sector. Overview
Set up in 2012 as an expert group at DGT, LIND promotes the acquisition of knowledge about the sector, believing that knowledge and understanding are tools to help us map out trends, offer guidance and anticipate future needs. The group has experts with know

ledge of all aspects of the industry, keen to promote professionalism and professionalisation. Helping you build your future
LIND has worked with ESCO (European Skills, Competences, Qualifications and Occupations) on the Translation section of its job mobility portal. The interactive element of this portal will help jobseekers discover what skills they need, where their skills are needed and, of course, what jobs are advertised. Information sharing
The Translating Europe Forum is a seriously popular event. It’s difficult to imagine those huge conference halls in Brussels being filled to capacity, but for TEF, even the overflow room is full. This is the major opportunity in Europe for all people in the sector, whatever their job or career level, to exchange opinions and meet future colleagues. Education
LIND has been busy behind the scenes, helping set up placements and internships for students, and setting out a framework for the ethos and practicalities of placements.
