The International Terminology Summer School, or in short TSS, is an annual practice-oriented training on terminology management for professionals in these fields. It is organized by TermNet, the International Network for Terminology, an Austrian-based international NGO. 54 participants from more than 22 countries - most of them translators or terminologists in companies, non-profits, universities or freelance - gathered in Cologne last week for the 5-day seminar.
