ResumeThis paper lists various ICTs used in the translation industry and examines the possibility of delivering translation courses online against the background of the COVID-19 pandemic. The methodology is descriptive, conceptual and critical. Indeed, the paper describes the ICTs such as Computer Assisted Translation (CAT) tools and Learning Management Systems (LMS) used in both the translation industry and virtual classes and then it discusses the need to make them affordable and user-friendly in a typical African context. An example of conceptual research approach is also given. Some of the findings of this paper are that although the introduction of LMS in academic institutions in Africa has the potential to enhance students’ computer literacy and provide traditional, virtual, and blended modes of delivery, students’ engagement remains a challenge. To address this problem, the instructional design of online classes is key in encouraging peer interactions, and substantial management and organisation efforts are required to improve the social aspect of online learning.
