Localization Training

Unlock your team's localization potential

A video course that teaches engineering teams to architect, write, and deploy code for a worldwide audience.

What You'll Learn

Architecting for I18N

Our course will teach your engineers what it means to architect services with I18N in mind.

Understanding a few core concepts will help your team know how to build for the first locale, and be ready for more.

Translation Pipelines

Beyond translation files, how do you integrate other parts of your company into the translation workflow?

Whether you're a SaaS, enterprise, or mobile-only company, we discuss different approaches to building a translation pipeline that will fit your company.

Also covered...

  1. Human vs Machine vs LLM translation... which is best?
  2. How a Translation Management System (TMS) can simplify your translation workflows, and how to choose the best vendor.
  3. How to enable or disable locales based on current environment.
  4. And more!

Who is this course for?

  • Engineers creating software for multi-lingual or multi-regional markets
  • Technical leaders wanting to understand level of effort to localize their services
  • Development teams who want to reduce localization errors.

We can help your engineering team skip the trial-and-error phase and get to the heart of the problems you're facing.

This isn't unusual, and the cause is typically rooted in common misunderstandings by engineers around I18N best practices. After taking our course, your engineering team will have the clarity on these topics to know where they went wrong in their first implementation.
You don't need to decide on a vendor or even find translators in order to understand the engineering lift required to add I18N to your codebase. Our course covers different techniques to start small that will teach your team how to break the work into smaller pieces.
Start with understanding how BCP-47 locales work. Our course teaches engineers how a locale flows through an HTTP Request and how it should be returned within the HTTP Response. Having a clear understanding of this full cycle will begin to clarify where you should start.
The truth is that the right vendor depends on your company's needs. We have direct relationships with several translation vendors, but decline any referral income so we can provide you with our honest input on which vendor makes the most sense for you.
