Safety Media (now part of The Access Group)

Background

The Access Group provides Health & Safety training solutions for businesses and organisations worldwide. The firm designs innovative training programmes and multi-media resources including e-learning solutions, booklets, posters and training aids.

The Brief

To produce multilingual versions of our products and services to facilitate business growth in the UK, originally through the production and translation of on-screen subtitles for a range of Health & Safety training DVDs and subsequently digitally via an e-learning platform.

The Solution

Peak Translations has been working in partnership with Safety Media (now part of The Access Group) for over ten years on a vast number of foreign language projects.

“Working with each DVD script, Peak initially produced edited text for English subtitles. They then translated the approved English subtitles into various foreign languages, ensuring every sentence met with screen format restrictions and reading speed requirements. The DVDs focused on issues surrounding Health & Safety at work, such as fire safety, stress management and working at heights.”

Peak’s work with Safety Media has evolved significantly over the past decade, due to the development of web-based training products. They now provide translation services for The Access Group’s cutting-edge e-learning solutions, including online Health & Safety training courses.

The Benefits

“When we started working together, our original goal was to expand our range of foreign language training products for the UK market. The reality is that the high-quality translation services provided by Peak Translations opened the door to a global marketplace.”
