Hi texjax DDS PhD,

I am afraid this session is not approved for ATA CE points. Some of the approved courses available here:
all SDL Trados certification training, https://www.proz.com/translator-training/topic/sdl-trados-certified
The Language of Legal Correspondence and The Language of Contracts series: https://www.proz.com/translator-training/course/14009

Hope this helps.

My bests,
Helen
