Deja Vu X2 Professional Training Events

Déjà Vu X2 Professional On-Line Training Sessions

Click here to see the training environment and test the log-in procedure. If everything goes fine, you will see a “Successfully Connected! Waiting for Organizer...” window. Please also read the Audio Checklist. On the actual day you will use a different address and need a password.

How does it work?

The webinars are delivered live in English via a web conferencing system with built-in VoIP. In other words, they are interactive like real seminars. Besides speakers/headphones, attendees should ideally have a microphone so that they can ask questions. Alternatively, it is also possible to phone in (you pay for the call) or type your questions into a chat window. Due to their interactive nature, enrolment is limited to a maximum of ten participants per session. Obviously a broadband Internet connection (cost not included in the price of the webinar) is essential for reasonable reception.

When are they? What time are they?

You can either join an existing training session or request one at a time that suits you. See below for details of the next sessions. If you do not want to request a session and prefer to wait until others propose dates and times, you might like to subscribe to the Déjà Vu X2 training RSS feed or follow the Training Events on Facebook.

Do I get an attendance certificate?

An attendance certificate is issued after the event and may score you points in the continuing professional development programmes run by various translators' associations.

Do I get training notes?

Attendees will receive some summary notes exclusively for their personal use after logging into the session.

Who is the trainer?

Michael Farrell is a freelance translator, untenured lecturer in computer tools for translation and interpreting at the IULM University, Milan, Italy, Atril Certified Training Partner and the author of A Tinkerer's Guide to Structured Query Language in Déjà Vu X. He is also the developer of the freeware terminology search tool IntelliWebSearch. He has held training courses and seminars in Italy for schools, translation agencies, professional associations and individual professional translators on the use of Déjà Vu since 2000.

How do I enrol?

If you want to enrol in an existing session, click one of the ENROL NOW links below according to the session that interests you ("Full Immersion Webinar on Déjà Vu X2 Professional" or "A Deeper Look at Déjà Vu X2 Professional") after you have made sure you know exactly what time the session starts in your time zone (see below).
If you want to propose the date/time, click one of the CHOOSE TIME links below according to the session that interests you. Note that there must be at least two attendees (except for the one-to-one tutoring). So if no one else enrols you will not be asked to pay and the session will not take place.

Personal data and privacy

Avangate provides me with your personal data excluding credit card, bank, PayPal or other payment-means-related data. I process the data I receive in accordance with my privacy policy. Avangate processes your data in accordance with its own privacy policy. Note that the name, surname and email address you use to log into the on-line training session are visible to the other attendees.

Do you organize on-line training sessions on other subjects?

The sessions below are also available in Italian. On request, I can also organize webinars on the previous version (Déjà Vu X Professional). In addition, I also hold webinars on IntelliWebSearch, a freeware web search tool for translators, in English and Italian.
