Recruitment materials (i.e., flyers, handouts, brochures, etc.) (a) must be translated into the applicable foreign language, (b) the translation must be certified by an acceptable translator, and (c) the translated document(s) and certificate(s) of translation must be submitted and approved by the IRB prior to use.
Requests for translation of documents can be sent to A&R Certified Translations, an acceptable vendor for translations. Please email all applicable items to [email protected].
Their services include:
- Cost estimate for the document to be translated
- Initial translations
- Modifications to existing translated documents
- Reviews of translations done by external translators for all research-related documents (e.g., informed consent forms, HIPAA forms, brochures, newsletters, etc.)
Please confirm on the final study budget that the Sponsor is paying for the translations. Once A&R provides the translation, you/your department will receive an invoice to pay them directly.
