ATA Certification exam

ATA exam at BP17

On the pre-conference day you will have a chance to pass the certification exam of the American Translators’ Association.

The venue

Hotel Aréna (the conference hotel), 1-3 Ifjúság útja, Budapest 1148, Hungary

The exam room will be announced later, and it will be clearly signposted on the exam day.

You can find the hotel easily by public transport: take metro line 2 from downtown Budapest to ‘Puskás Ferenc stadion’.  Take the rear exit by walking left as you leave the train.  The hotel is some 100 meters to the right once you reach street level.

The time

The exam will take place between 9 am and noon on Thursday, 4 May, 2017.  Make sure you’re in the exam room by 8:30.
