Hello, everyone.
I am doing several translations right now and there are 3 expressions
that are really somewhat hard to put into natural English.
I would be very grateful if you could kindly help me or point me in the right direction.
Thank you.
1. 高校の進学説明会 as in:
トフルゼミナール留学センターでは、海外公立高校の中で、最も人気が高いカナダの高校の進学説明会を現地事情に精通したゲストをお招きして実施いたします。
保護者の皆様と一緒にお気軽にご参加ください。

2. サテライト方式 / サテライト校
simply “satellite school” seems a bit awkward…

remote
For 高校の進学説明会 I would translate the entire phrase as "explanatory meeting on studying in Canadian state/public schools. "Public school" is a tricky one as the meaning is different depending on the country and educational system ("public schools" in the UK are private and self-funded).
For "サテライト方式" I would use "remote" or "relocated" as the term is one coined in Japan for schools relocated after the Fukushima nuclear disaster. However, the term "satellite campus" is used for universities in English.
Also, you should ask separate questions separately on Proz.

| Thank you for your suggestions and great advice. “relocated” is especially nice. |

Satellite Schools
koko shingaku setsumeikai: Informational meeting for entering high school in Canada -- See website below for your reference.
Satellite school/method - Since Japanese expression uses "Satellite", I would use Satellite Schools in English expression.
Shinro Gasshuku - an extended training session or off-campus training for choosing the right school
