On 26 October – 13 November a series of master classes by Mikhail Kuzmenko, Senior Reviser of the Russian Translation Section, UN Office at Geneva, took place at the SCIT. His mission was to acquaint the students with the specifics of work at the United Nations, help them acquire hands-on experience of translating UN documents and prepare them for national competitive examinations for translators and editors. For three weeks the students translated and analyzed UN texts and studied institutional terminology. At the end of the training the students translated two official UN documents taken from the current workflow followed by feedback on mistakes and inaccuracies.
