About MICATA
MICATA is a non-profit organization and a regional chapter of American Translators Association that focuses its activities on the Mid-America region of the United States but has members throughout North America and as far as Spain, Germany and Japan. It exists for the benefit of translators, interpreters and other language professionals and those who use our services.
Collaboration & Community
MICATA’s major objectives are to provide a forum for translators, interpreters and other language professionals to share ideas and expertise through our meetings, website and newsletter, and to keep our professional members informed and up to date through our annual symposium on translation and interpreting.
