Translation & Localization Services for eLearning

While Google Translate is handy for understanding basic phrases or getting by in a pinch during travel, it is unsustainable for professional eLearning and educational content.

Here's why:

• Accuracy: Google Translate provides rough translations that often miss nuances, context, and specialized terminology crucial in educational materials.
• Quality Assurance: Unlike our ISO-certified processes, Google Translate lacks rigorous quality checks to ensure error-free, culturally appropriate content.
• Human Expertise: Our native-speaking subject matter experts bring a depth of understanding to your material that AI can't match.
• Adaptability: eLearning often requires creative solutions and cultural adaptations only human linguists can provide.
• Consistency: Our Translation Memory technology ensures terminology consistency across all your materials, which is something Google Translate can't offer.
• Liability: Using machine translation for official educational content could expose your organization to legal risks.
• Privacy & Security: Basic Google Translate is not compliant with many privacy standards, including HIPAA. While your data is encrypted in transit from the website, the encryption is not end-to-end. Sensitive content should not be used with the basic version of Google Translate.

At Dynamic Language, we combine cutting-edge technology with human expertise to deliver eLearning translations that are accurate, engaging, and tailored to your specific educational needs. Don't compromise on quality when it comes to your global learning initiatives.

Over the years, we have built our specialized protocol for localizing eLearning content. This starts with translation but doesn’t end until we make your entire course fluent in both the language and culture of your target audience: 

• Every element of your course is translated from introductory text to full multimedia environments using database-driven testing. 

• Our localization experts – including voice talent and presenters – turn your dialog into engaging learning material in the necessary languages. 

• Then, we address the cultural relevance of language and visuals in your course to ensure everything meets your audience's expectations. 

• Meanwhile, our design team tweaks other visual elements where the translation process has changed the number of words on graphic features. 

We use this protocol to translate and localize any digital or printed documentation and associated material using the industry-standard software of your choice. 

Partnering with Dynamic Language offers exceptional value for your eLearning initiatives:

• Expertise: 39+ years of experience and ISO 9001:2015 certification ensure top-quality results.
• Efficiency: Our streamlined processes save you time and resources.
• Responsiveness: Count on replies within hours, not days.
• Cost-effectiveness: Our translation memory technology reduces the costs of repetitive content.
• Scalability: We grow with your needs from single courses to entire catalogs.
• Cultural Insight: Native-speaking experts ensure your content resonates globally.
• Comprehensive Service: We handle all aspects of eLearning localization, from consultation to delivery.

With Dynamic Language, you're getting more than a service provider - you're gaining a committed partner in your global eLearning success.

For your pilot, we can use technology to create automated and time-saving workflows that optimize efficiencies, even for creative elements like multimedia and graphic design. Once the course is localized, our quality assurance team will ensure that you receive reliable results. When you are ready to translate more courses, our scalable processes will expand to support your requirements. 

We’ve been providing language services and solutions for over 30 years and are experienced in working with clients at all stages of their localization maturity. As we start, we’ll work collaboratively to identify a custom solution that produces eLearning courses that meet your quality, cost, and delivery requirements.  

We work with eLearning content in various situations and have tested, easy-to-manage ways to get you where you need to be. We also take an agile and flexible approach to our partnerships, meaning we have experience across many different systems and are adaptable to any tech stack you’re working with. 

We have the experience and resources to scale as you’re ready to expand and grow your localization. Dynamic Language has spent years cultivating relationships with resources and industry partners worldwide, all with an extremely high level of linguistic and subject-matter expertise and a significant number of linguists who can be deployed quickly and expertly.  When we need to scale, it's just a matter of communicating with the appropriate people in our network of resources and applying all the tools at our disposal. One of these tools is a language technology called Translation Memory that enables the translation of words, sentences, or phrases by searching for similar translations and suggesting matches found in our database, thus considerably reducing costs and delays. 

We use a hybrid approach of machine learning and human touch. Machine Translation is especially beneficial in increasing speed and efficiency when you have large volumes of content. Our large language models (LLMs) also continuously train on the translations performed across assets, lending to optimizations over time.  

Dynamic Language can provide information on cost savings, time to market, time percentage, work volume, and efficiency. You can quickly and easily combine the data with your enrollment numbers per language and assess the ROI for each course across the board. 

Our highly skilled teams of linguists, cultural consultants, graphic designers, and copywriters deliver superior localization services. They adapt content using resources familiar with your target culture to maintain style, tone, and intent. 

At Dynamic Language, we understand the challenges of getting buy-in for localization initiatives. Here's how we help you overcome internal resistance:

• Customized Strategy: We work closely with you to develop a tailored approach that aligns with your organization's goals and budget constraints.
• Pilot Programs: We start with small-scale projects to demonstrate success and build confidence.
• Stakeholder Education: We offer presentations and workshops to help decision-makers understand the complexities and importance of proper localization.
• Phased Implementation: We can design a gradual rollout plan to manage costs and minimize disruption.
• Quality Assurance: Our ISO-certified processes provide peace of mind about the quality of localized content.
• Future-proofing: We demonstrate how investing in localization sets the stage for future global expansion.
• Ongoing Support: Our dedicated account managers provide continuous guidance throughout your localization journey.

At Dynamic Language, we know that getting subtitles right is an art. It requires precision and creativity to adapt, paraphrase, and capture both the style and substance of the original video while also synchronizing the length of the translation for readability by the audience. We offer Subtitling, Voice Over, and Captioning services. 

At Dynamic Language, we pride ourselves on our technical versatility. Our expert localization engineers can handle virtually any file format your eLearning content might be in.  

We're constantly updating our capabilities to meet the evolving needs of eLearning localization.
