Aim:
Aim: to give knowledge, skill and confidence to language professionals
who are coming to grips with corpora.  Corpus work is fast becoming
an everyday activity in both the commercial and academic sectors of
language study, and still only a small proportion of those who are
getting involved with corpora have had even the most basic introduction
to the management and use of corpus resources. This course features the
particular needs and resources of multilingual corpus work, but not
exclusively.

TWC courses are intensive and last for one week, ranging from language
 policy matters to linguistic theory and description, featuring hands-on
experience, detailed exemplification and practical technical review.

Suitable for:

workers in the language industries
researchers and scholars of language
translators
lexicographers
computational linguists
language teachers.

[The course is supported by a small grant from the EC-TELRI-II project
which enables the fees to be kept low;  TWC regrets that no grants or
scholarships are available for this course]
