Are you new to the world of editing and translation? Join NEaT as an early career member to take the first step in advancing your career!
NEaT is a registered association providing education, professional development and networking for editors and translators working in the English language in the Nordic countries. This year we are campaigning to encourage people who are new to the profession.
NEaT early career membership is designed to support emerging language professionals by offering a path into the field. You’ll gain access to our comprehensive mentoring programme, valuable networking events such as ELN2025 on Friday 3 October 2025, and a range of professional development courses. While you won’t have voting rights or access to job-sharing resources just yet, you’ll still be able to connect with experienced editors and translators, learn new skills, and join the language community. All at a reduced membership fee.
After three years of working professionally or full-time study, you’ll be eligible to upgrade to full membership, unlocking additional benefits, including voting rights and full access to our job-sharing resources. Don’t miss out on this chance to jumpstart your language journey with NEaT – shaping the language future.
Get ready for the annual NEaT picnic on Saturday 16 August at noon! It’s the end of the holidays and the start of a new work period, but let’s take a moment to enjoy the last bit of summer together. Feel free to bring family, friends and your pet!
We will be at Tokoinranta in Helsinki, which is a very short walk from Hakaniemi square and accessible by metro and trams. You can also find good parking on Eläintarhantie, the street near where we will picnic. Just follow the curve of the bay on the north side until you see our blue tent.
Bring your own picnic lunch and drinks. If you’d like to bring something to share, that is very welcome! NEaT will provide something sparkling for the welcoming toast (be sure to bring a cup!) and some delicious treats to share. We also promise our annual Mölkky game.
RSVP at this link so that we know you are coming. You will be sent alternate instructions for bad weather if needed. Please also let us know if you prefer alcoholic or non-alcoholic beverages, and if you have any allergies or food preferences.
See you at Tokoinranta!
