Although it will use some of the materials presented at the City University seminar in June, the overall level will not be as advanced as the City University seminar: apart from anything else, the one-day Cologne seminar cannot hope to go into as much detail as my 2-day London seminars.<br /><br />Deborah's London seminar will probably take no more than a passing glance at the Finanzteil, and will concentrate much more on what comes before that in annual reports, with a special emphasis on issues such as style and register.<br /><br />As such, the two seminars are complementary, rather than competitive.RobinBhttp://www.fb-partners.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20155610.post-717139223232310902009-10-26T20:24:18.400+00:002009-10-26T20:24:18.400+00:00The Cologne seminar sounds like it might be a Germ...The Cologne seminar sounds like it might be a German version of the course Robin did in London in June. That event was very good. I'm not a financial translator myself nor do I intend to become one, but it has been valuable for the times when I have to support my partner (proofreading mostly) in some of her work in this area.Kevin Lossnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14727800526216764023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20155610.post-46522000195105837332009-10-26T19:46:04.604+00:002009-10-26T19:46:04.604+00:00Hi Kevin,

This seminar sounds really interesting, even more so than a similar seminar coming up in Germany:<br />"Finanzberichte nach IFRS / DRS. Eine Einführung für Übersetzer und Terminologen" in Cologne, Nov. 27/28 by Deutscher Terminologie Tag (http://www.dttev.org/)<br />One day of this seminar will be led by Robin Bonthrone of Fry & Bonthrone.<br />So anyone who is closer to Cologne than to London might prefer this one. <br />I hope to attend :-)<br /><br />KarenKarenhttp://www.karenherzog.denoreply@blogger.com
