Bio: I am a translator working from English, French, Catalan and Polish into Spanish, combining my activity as a freelancer with studies in Translation and Interpreting at the University of Alicante (Spain). My passion for the Social Media world introduced me to this discipline and made me attend several courses on this subject, obtaining several diplomas and offering me the possibility to work for several international companies as a Digital Marketing and Social Media consultant.

I also run my own video blog for translators and interpreters, www.transgalator.wordpress.com. And you can find me on Twitter as @transGalator, you can follow my Facebook page "Transgalator" and connect with me on LinkedIn profile.

Hi Valeria,

Thank you for your interest in training at ProZ.com.

As a rule, if a session is being recorded, the webinar video is released within one working week after the session. During this week, a link to the video and handouts are sent to all attendees and since that moment all attendees get unlimited access to the video and the training presentation.

The webinar video has been released earlier today and a link to training materials has been emailed accordingly. You can watch the video as many times as it is needed and whenever it is needed from your My videos page at http://www.proz.com/videos/my_videos

Hope this helps.

My bests,
Helen
