Trust simultaneous and consecutive interpreting needs to the best

You’ve heard psychologists and anthropologists stress how important body language is for human communication. Words are essential, of course, but tone, facial expressions, gestures, and even subtle pauses or throat clearing go well beyond what spoken words can ever convey. That’s why it’s so important that the linguists handling your company’s simultaneous and consecutive interpretations are highly-experienced and dedicated to your brand’s success.

The interpreting teams at CCA are selected for more than just their linguistic prowess; we select them because they are also dedicated to serving our clients the very best that they can. We work closely with you before the event, gathering as much information as we can for the various sessions and social engagements where our interpreters will be of service.

We place you with interpreters who are both familiar with your industry and are native speakers from your target audience’s countries and regions. Our interpreters may even curate a glossary to make sure they understand and use brand-specific terminology and phrasing. This ensures interpretations are as seamless as possible when it comes to turns of phrase, idioms, current cultural/political humor, etc. In addition, our interpreters boast some of the most rigorous credentials of any language services firm in the nation, including:

• Graduate degrees from accredited universities;
• At least 5 years or 200 hours of simultaneous interpreting experience;
• Accreditation and/or certification with organizations such as the United Nations, the US Department of State, and the European Union;
• Peer-reviewed memberships in some of the industry’s most well-known organizations such as AIIC or TAALS.

Our interpreters are just as ready to assist you in a high-profile delegation as they are to support casual conversations at the golf course or one of Pittsburgh’s most desirable restaurants, theaters, and museums, such as the Carnegie Museum of Art, the Carnegie Museum of Natural History, the Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens, or the Andy Warhol Museum.

Are you interested in learning more about our passionate team of simultaneous interpreters? Contact us today or give us a call at +1 (877) 708-0005 and we’ll work with you ensure you have everything you need to keep the conversations alive.

Accurate and organized translation materials

Will you be working with a variety of target languages? Are you committed to providing accurate translations that are easily scannable and resonate with the reader? CCA’s professional team of translators have designed a three-tier translation process that ensures all of your materials are translated word perfect, every time. Not only that, our commitment to providing native-speaking translators means those words will flow as naturally as if they originated in your target audience’s language.

We provide professional translations for:

• Government documents
• Speeches and transcripts
• Marketing materials
• Employee training and technical manuals
• Presentations
• Corporate communications
• And more

We can also provide translation support with static website content and promotional social media posts.

Once your project is in contract, we’ll put you in touch with a dedicated project manager who oversees the translations from start to finish. From there, each and every document will go through three separate steps:

1. The initial translation by a first linguist
2. Editing by a second translator
3. Proofreading and final checks by yet another team

This level of detail ensures your documents are 100% accurate, and your audience will comment on the difference between the materials you provide and those provided by your competitors.

Use transcriptions and subtitles so your video’s worth a thousand cultures

We know the level of financial and energetic investment required to make high-quality marketing and training videos. Our subtitling and transcription services mean you can take a single video and translate it into any language you want.

We never, ever use machine translators as this produces sub-par materials at best, and embarrassing or completely erroneous translations at worst. Instead, our team works with you to provide high-quality subtitling.

Contact CCA’s translators to schedule your upcoming translation projects. We can provide well-organized translations for you to take along with you or we’re happy to accompany you to key events to ensure all the right materials get into all the right hands at just the right time – avoiding any embarrassing glitches.

Professional interpreting rental equipment you can count on

Speaking of glitches… don’t trust the rental equipment “guaranteed” by your Pittsburgh venue of choice. That is a recipe for disaster. Instead, use our interpreting rental equipment to make sure you have each piece of equipment needed, with the confidence of knowing it’s well-maintained and that it comes along with complete A/V equipment support and a conference technician.

We provide a range of professional interpreting rental equipment, including:

• Headsets and mics
• Portable equipment for tours, trainings and demos
• Soundproof booths
• Interpreter consoles
• Both infrared and FM transmitters/receivers

When you get in touch with Chang-Castillo and Associates at +1 (877) 708-0005, we’ll review your itinerary and learn more about your events to ensure you have exactly what you need.

Teleconference services facilitate professional relationships here, there and everywhere

Teleconferencing is a smart solution, offering a more personalized way to enjoy “face-time” without leaving the comfort of your own office, time zone, and budget.

CCA provides teleconferencing services, along with professional interpreting and translation services, and our clients rave about its ability to foster longer-lasting and more loyal relationships with their multinational colleagues and clients. Contact us to learn more.
