ITI was founded in 1986, as a breakaway group from the Translators Guild of the Institute of Linguists (now the CIoL). As the principal professional association of translators and interpreters in the United Kingdom, it has become one of the primary sources of information on translation and interpreting to government, industry, the media and the public at large. It was one of the bodies consulted regarding the creation of the EN 15038 European quality standard for the provision of translation services.
