What does Transit Satellite PE mean for freelance translators?
Transit Satellite PE ("Personal Edition") has been developed for freelance translators working with translation agencies or other organisations. Using Transit Satellite PE, a freelancer can receive projects, translate them and return them to the project manager at the translation agency. Transit Satellite PE fits perfectly into the work distribution framework, with the other disciplines: project manager/translator /reviser/publishing expert.

It has not been designed as a stand-alone product. Satellite PE can only be used in combination with a version of Transit Professional used to prepare the translation project. The needs of independent translation suppliers are therefore met with Transit Professional or Transit Smart.

What does Satellite PE mean for translation agencies and translation departments of companies and public bodies?
Satellite PE is supplied free of charge to freelancers anywhere in the world who want to work for you. This product immediately increases the number of colleagues familiar with Transit when and where they are needed, thus improving your competitiveness and efficiency.

How can I learn to use Transit Satellite PE?
We have designed a computer-based training (CBT) programme, to guide beginners in the use of STAR products, and particularly as a teaching aid for the use of Satellite PE. Feel free to download this Satellite PE course.
