2005 WLE First Stage In order to specifically tailor the web content for each country that WLE covers, the materials used in WLE were first "acculturated" into culturally specific language and context and then the acculturated version was translated where requested. Between January 2005 - July 2005, over one hundred articles sourced from IBM and Ceridian were acculturated for 26 countries, these articles covering issues on parenting at various stages of a child's life, elder care tips, tips on managing stress, personal wellbeing, single parenthood and finding quality caregivers. More than 30 editors from around the globe were sourced to do this work. with 20 translators who worked on translating the articles into Italian, Simplified and Traditional Chinese, Korean, and three versions of Spanish. An online- line process was developed to completed this project within a relatively short timeframe. This process enabled editors and translators working simultaneously from different locations, while the project lead in WLE's corporate office in Sydney, Australia, could manage the progress efficiently.
