SEGC, official supplier of linguistic services for Héma-Québec

January 13, 2010Following an invited tender, Services d’édition was given the privilege of being selected as the Héma-Québec supplier for all the linguistic services the organization will require over a period of two years.

These services primarily consist of translation (mostly from French to English), but also include copy-editing, proofreading and terminological advising in both languages. Documents will be varied, and will include the annual report.

This is a great honour for us, and we will fulfill our mandate with the greatest care.

Corporate training: copy editing and proofreading

Publishing, communications, advertising

November 5, 2010Your staff members have to deal with file exchanges between writers, editors and production managers. They have to work together and strive for perfection.

Services d’édition provides work strategies for editing texts using the “Track Changes” feature already included in your Microsoft Word software.

Once the layout is complete, we provide other strategies for proofreading in PDF using tools from Adobe Acrobat (version 8).

Two separate training blocks: one in copy editing and one in proofreading. Meetings take place in the company’s own offices in a computerized environment.

Each block includes two three-hour sessions: introduction to the working method, list of points to watch out for, demonstration and exercises followed by correction and discussion in the second session.

The workshops, which are prepared as modules, can easily be adapted to the needs and contents typically dealt with by the various organizations and companies. While the sessions are only offered in French, the same methods apply for English texts.

For more information, do not hesitate to contact Guy Connolly at info@servicesdedition.com.
