I believe it is a good way to present highly qualified people to prospective clients, and make them feel reassured that they are dealing with professionals who will have their best interest in mind.

I welcome the incentive to review my skills and keep checking they are up to date.

I think that translators need a stronger definition as a professional group and this program supports that goal.

I am particularly honored and proud to have been accepted and to be part of this special community and I hope, certainly, to keep on deserving this honor.

I am really happy to meet all of you here, and will definitely make my contributions as I can.

So far I'm impressed with quality and detailed level of thought and feedback people are putting in, plus the fact that people are motivated by what's good for the industry rather than their own self-interest.

Many many thanks to all the people who made this possible!

One more positive vote for the program here. A great idea: an interest in quality work matters.

Since I am member of the ProZ.com Certified PRO Network, I can't stop working and I have got more and more outsourcers which pick my quotes and visit my profile. Just amazing!

Having been recommended by fellow colleagues is a great honour. I look forward to contributing even more to the community.

Great initiative!

I firmly believe there is a need to distinguish qualified, experienced translation professionals and am happy to play any part I can in supporting that.
