UW-Madison Profile - Translating Profile into other languages

Languages other than English can be toggled on in Profile.

Selecting a different language in Profile:

  1. Log in to UW-Madison Profile at profile.wisc.edu.
  2. On any page in Profile, locate the drop-down language icon (top right corner). 
  3. Select a language for translation. At this time, Spanish is the only available option. Additional translations will be provided in the future.

Note: Not all elements of Profile will be translated by this setting. Users should expect to see some English text at all times. Development of this feature is ongoing.

Users should be aware that when Spanish is selected, screen readers will read English words with an accent unless specified in your personal screen reader settings. Spanish words will be read in Spanish.
