Spanish term or phrase: Logros del expediente - Convocatoria Logro Académico
Hi all,
I'm translating an academic transcript and at the end there is a LOGRO DEL ESTUDIANTE section.

Under this part about student achievement it says:

Logros del expediente - Convocatoria Logro Académico


Your help is greatly appreciated.

English translation:Recorded achievements - Examination Session | Academic achievement
Explanation:
Building on Heather's post, I agree that the 'Logros del expediente' is something like the achievements on record (presumably for the student in question).

I think there's one key issue that's complicating this term - namely that Convocatoria and Logro Academico are separate ideas. To verify this, Google "Convocatoria Logro Académico" and take a look at the PDF results that come up. I won't post them here, because a) they're presumably personal documents and b) I don't know how to post image snippets.

The point is, you'll see something like this:

Logros del Alumno/a
Convocatoria Logro Académico
J 2014-2015 Graduado/a en Historia

"Convocatoria" literally means "convocation", as Heather points out, but in Spain these are twice-yearly examinations that students sit to graduate from various academic programs (see below for some ProZ glossary entries to this effect). So in the example above, J 2014-2015 means the June examination session for the 2014-2015 academic year. Following this, we can see that the "Logro Académico" is the academic achievement, in this case a diploma in history.

Here are the entries on 'Convocatoria':

No worries! It took me at least 5 or 6 read-throughs to figure out that they were different things myself. Looking through the PDFs I can find online, the formatting is universally bad, not even a tab separating each item in the table. Good luck with the rest of the translation!

Explanation:
Well this is just a suggestion, but maybe "del expediente" could be rendered by "recorded" (i.e. from the record/file). There are references online to "academic achievement convocation" -- which could also be called something like "Honors Assembly."

Hope that at least gives you a jumping off point.

Asker: I feel so silly. I have just taken a closer look and realised (working with poor formatting!) that they are indeed two separate headings in a table, so yep, examination sitting/session and then to the right, the degree and major. Thank you so much.
