A U.S. globalization-services company needed to localize sophisticated Office e-learning courseware from English into French, Spanish, Japanese, Polish and German for international learners.

Challenge

01

Localized courses had to remain visually and functionally faithful to the original English experience.

02

Large multimedia files and many course versions created integration and file-size risks.

03

The team had to master advanced Office course content and follow the client’s specialist workflow quickly.

Solution

Established a controlled localization-engineering and QA workflow that integrated translated text, Flash media and course assets across five target languages.

How we worked

01

Reviewed learning points before each course and aligned localization decisions across the engineering team.

02

Edited and optimised multimedia assets before integrating translated materials into the courseware.

03

Validated samples with the client, then trained the wider delivery team on the approved workflow.

04

Used checklist-based testing and Visual SourceSafe to control quality, versions and code across the programme.

Result

Delivered smoothly running courses aligned with local languages and cultures.

Reduced localization cost and shortened time to market.
