Community Center for Translation & Language Teaching

The Community Service Center for Translation and Language Teaching (CCTLT) is a public community center affiliated to Sana’a University, comprising a group of outstanding academic and professional programs in translation and language teaching with well-qualified and competent Yemeni cadres. The idea of establishing this specialized center of translation and language teaching was conceived in 1997, at the beginning of the foundation of the Faculty of Languages. Then, a Unit of Language Teaching was set up in the Department of English. This was developed into a language center which was established under Sana’a University Rector’s Resolution (No. 414/2004) to meet the community needs in translation services and foreign language teaching.
