JTA - Jordanian Translators' Association
|
|
Association Description |
|
The
Jordanian Translators' Association (JTA) is the first
and the only Jordanian national professional association
of translators and interpreters. It was established in
November 1993. Up until that time there was no single
national professional association, although there were
several public and private professional bodies. JTA
plans to have branches in the main cities of Jordan
(i.e. Irbid, Zerka, and Kerak, among others). The
affairs of JTA are controlled by its Administrative
Board subject to its statutes and any resolution passed
by the Association in the General meeting. JTA was
admitted to the membership of the Arab Translators
Federation in June 1995 and to the membership of FIT
(the International Federation of Translators) in April
1998. Fifteen members, out of its eighteen founding
members, are university professors specialized in
Linguistics and/or Translation. Currently, JTA has more
than three hundred full-members and twenty associate and
honorary members. The Association is a non-profit
organization and has no political, regional, sectarian
or tribal objectives.
