The Proof of Professional Mastery
A Certificate of Competence (Yeterlilik Belgesi or Mesleki Yeterlilik Belgesi) is a vital credential that verifies an individual’s or a company’s ability to perform specific tasks, operate specialized machinery, or provide professional services. Whether you are a maritime officer, an industrial technician, a healthcare professional, or an engineering firm, this certificate is your “license to operate” in international markets.
In high-stakes industries like aviation, shipping, medicine, and heavy construction, a mistranslation of a specific “Rating,” “Endorsement,” or “Technical Capacity” can result in the rejection of a job application, the denial of an operating permit, or even serious legal and safety liability. Precise technical terminology is the difference between a successful international career and a stalled application.
As Aspendos Tercüme ve Danışmanlık Hizmetleri A.Ş., with over 15 years of experience and holding ISO 17100 and ISO 9001 certifications, we provide the certified translations required to make your professional skills recognized and respected worldwide.
Technical Precision and Global Standards: Our Process
Translating competency documents requires a deep understanding of industry-specific qualifications and international certification standards (such as STCW for maritime or ISO for industry). Our process ensures your expertise is correctly understood:
Subject-Matter Technical Experts: Your certificate is handled by a Sworn Translator who specializes in your specific field. They ensure that technical terms like “Authorized Inspector,” “Operating Limits,” and “Proficiency Level” are rendered using their exact international equivalents.
ISO 17100:2015 Quality Standards:
- Technical Detail Audit: Meticulous cross-checking of all specific endorsements, expiration dates, and the scope of authority granted by the certificate.
- Academic/Professional Level Matching: We ensure your competency level is correctly mapped to the target country’s framework (e.g., matching a Turkish Ustalık Belgesi to the appropriate European vocational level).
Format Preservation: Competency certificates often feature complex grids, security holographic markers, and official seals. We maintain the original layout, ensuring all technical codes and institutional endorsements are clearly identified and translated.
Certified & Sworn Translation: We provide official sworn translations required by international regulatory bodies, consulates, and multinational employers.

Why Every Rating and Endorsement Matters
For a professional working abroad, the specific “Scope of Authority” is the most important part of the document. We focus on:
Zero-Error Coding: Many certificates include alphanumeric codes representing specific skills. We transcribe these with 100% accuracy to ensure that HR software and regulatory inspectors can verify your credentials instantly.
Translating Institutional Authority: We provide detailed translations of the issuing body (e.g., a specific Ministry or an accredited Certification Body like MYK), confirming the document’s legal origin for foreign officials.
Validation of Training Modules: If the certificate lists specific modules completed, we translate the names of these courses to reflect the standard curriculum used in the target country’s industry.
