Diploma / M.A. in legal translation, City University London
City University has recently announced, apparently, that its diploma / M.A. course on legal translation is not starting till autumn 2008. Meanwhile, there are a number of modules that can be taken separately as CPD (The ITI has recently been encouraging members to make a list of measures of CPD they undertake each year, although I don't think this is an official thing like it is for lawyers).
The modules are offered in the following language combinations:
English into French * English into German * English into Spanish * English into Italian * French into English * German into English * Spanish into English * Italian into EnglishLegal translation M.A. at City University
