AATIA will host a sitting for the American Translators Association (ATA) certification exam in Austin on July 18, 2020. This will be a computerized sitting, although candidates may hand-write the exam on paper if they prefer. Registration and all other details will be handled by ATA. To register for the exam, see the “Upcoming sittings” page on the ATA website.
In order to sit for the exam, candidates must first join ATA. The deadline for registration is three weeks before the exam date; however, sittings tend to fill up quickly, so if you intend to take the exam in Austin you should register well in advance. ATA strongly recommends that potential exam candidates take a practice test first to gauge their readiness to sit for the exam.
