English to French: Sustainable urban development Detailed field: Environment & Ecology
Source text - English Sustainability is not an end goal but a dynamic process by which we learn and design cities that are secure, livable, capable, learning, healthy, and creative. This process is fundamentally participatory and inclusive. We focus on the assets from which cities can draw their strength. We highlight dynamic participatory processes in action. Experience provides us with knowledge to apply to the creation of homegrown local solutions and supportive policies at the regional, national and global levels
Translation - French La viabilité écologique n’est pas une fin en soi, mais un processus dynamique de développement urbain prenant en compte les préoccupations en matière de sécurité, de qualité de vie, de moyens infrastructurels, d'éducation et de formation ainsi qu'en matière de santé et de créativité. Ce processus est tout à fait englobant et requiert l’adhésion de tous. Un effort particulier est fait en vue d’appréhender les atouts susceptibles de constituer une force pour les centres urbains. La mise en œuvre de processus participatifs dynamiques est au premier plan de notre action. L’expérience nous permet de tirer parti de la mise au point de solutions maison au niveau local ainsi que de politiques d’appui aux plans régional, national et international
English to French: Building an export plan Detailed field: Business/Commerce (general)
Source text - English Once you have completed the export readiness checklist and you have established that your company is ready to export, the next step is to develop an export plan. Many companies are not successful in the international marketplace because they did not take the time to develop a comprehensive export plan. Right from the start the export plan should be viewed as a tool to assist companies, rather than an inert document kept in a filing system. The export plan should change as companies learn and gain knowledge in the field of exporting.
An important first step in the export plan is to ensure a commitment from all the staff involved in exporting, pertaining to:
• What the company wishes to achieve
• Its capabilities
• Its restrictions
In addition, the staff directly involved in the export process should all agree upon all aspects of the export plan, as they will be implementing the plan.
When an export plan is developed, it should be kept simple and should be in point form, since important market information and planning elements may not be available at the time of drawing up the initial export plan. The export plan will generate more information and understanding, as your company learns more about exporting and your company's competitive position in the global marketplace. This should be followed by an executive summary.
Translation - French Dès lors qu'au regard de la check-list d’aptitude à l'exportation l'entreprise se révèle apte, l'étape suivante consiste à développer un plan d'exportation. Bon nombre d'entreprises font piètre figure sur le marché international parce qu'elles n'ont pas pris le temps d'élaborer un plan d'exportation étoffé. De prime abord ce plan doit être considéré par les entreprises comme un document de travail, et non pas comme un vulgaire document d'archive destiné à être classé dans un tiroir.En particulier, le plan doit faire l'objet de mises à jours régulières, à mesure que l'entreprise acquière de l'expérience dans le domaine des exportations.
Le premier pas en direction du plan d'exportation consiste à s'assurer de l'engagement de tout le personnel impliqué dans les activités d'exportation envers :
• La poursuite des objectifs que l'entreprise souhaite atteindre
• Le maintien et le développement des potentialités de l'entreprise
• La prise en compte des obstacles auxquels l'entreprise doit faire face
En outre, les personnes directement impliquées dans le processus d'exportation devraient accorder leurs violons sur tous les aspects du plan d'exportation au moment de son exécution.
Lorsqu'un plan d'exportation est élaboré, il doit être schématique et assez simple étant donné que d'importantes informations sur le marché ainsi que des éléments nécessaires pour la planification peuvent ne pas être disponibles dès le départ. Le plan sera progressivement détaillé à mesure que l'entreprise gagnera en expérience sur les méthodes d'exportation et aura une meilleure appréciation de sa position concurrentielle sur le marché international. Il doit être suivi d'une synthèse de la direction.
French to English: Etablissement privé d'enseignement supérieur Detailed field: Education / Pedagogy
Source text - French L'IUG dispense un enseignement qui correspond à un cycle court de l'enseignement supérieur. Il est une structure de l'Université de Bamako, 87 professeurs, 800 étudiants réguliers et 516 en formation continue. Dix pays sont représentés parmi leurs étudiants.
L'IUG dispense un enseignement qui correspond à un cycle court de l'enseignement supérieur. Il est une structure de l'Université de Bamako, 87 professeurs, 800 étudiants réguliers et 516 en formation continue. Dix pays sont représentés parmi leurs étudiants.
• L'institut assure aux étudiants, en deux ans à partir du baccalauréat, une formation universitaire et professionnelle sanctionnée par un Diplôme Universitaire de Technologie (DUT) permettant une insertion directe dans le domaine de la gestion des entreprises.
• Les bourses pourraient soutenir leur programme à distance à Segosso (300 km de Bamako) et Sego (240 km). Les professeurs vont dans deux villes durant 30 fins de semaine durant les deux ans; les étudiants continuent leurs emplois; ils ont des " devoirs " axés sur leur travail. Les exigences d'admission sont les mêmes que pour le programme offert à Bamako, soit le Bacc ou le Brevet de technicien (BT).
Translation - English The IUG provides an undergraduate-like higher education programme .It is under the tutorship of the University of Bamako with 87 teachers, 800 full time students and 516 in continuing education. The students are from ten different nationalities.
The IUG provides an undergraduate-like higher education programme .It is under the tutorship of the University of Bamako with 87 teachers, 800 full time students and 516 in continuing education. The students are from ten different nationalities.
• Within two years after the A level, the institution provides the students with a university and vocational training sanctioned by a University Diploma in Technology (DUT) which is a straightforward professional outlet into the business management field.
• The awards could support their distance education program in Segosso (300 km from Bamako) and Sego (240 km). Teachers ply between two cities during 30 weekends within the two years; students carry on with their employments; they have “homework” related to their job. The requirements for admission are the same as for the programme offered in Bamako, i.e. Either A Level or High School Technician Certificate (BT).
