Alconost Academy, a Free Certification Program for Localization Professionals

Alexandria, Virginia, 09/15/2026 — Alconost, a localization and translation company with more than 20 years of experience serving software, games, and technology clients worldwide, today announced the launch of Alconost Academy. The free, self-paced certification program for translators and localization professionals is available now at academy.alconost.com

Localization is evolving quickly as AI reshapes translation workflows, and many linguists are looking for practical, up-to-date training on how their work is changing. Alconost Academy was built to meet that need. The roughly 60-minute course covers modern localization workflows, AI-assisted translation and machine-translation post-editing (MTPE), quality assurance frameworks (QA/MQM), and linguistic quality assessment (LQA). Participants who complete the course receive a verifiable professional certificate they can share on LinkedIn and other professional profiles.

The program is free and open to any translator or localization professional, regardless of whether they currently work with Alconost. It is self-paced, with no deadline and no pass/fail requirement. 

The course is currently available in English, with additional languages planned for future releases.

Alconost Academy is available now at academy.alconost.com
