Since 2011, when it was held for the first time, the Translation and Interpreting Forum Olomouc has established itself as an open platform which is not limited only to an academic exchange within translation and interpreting studies research but embraces discussion with all players in the field of cross-language communication (see archive for TIFO 2019, 2017, 2014, 2012, 2011).
The 2022 conference theme "Room for (Ex)Change in T&I Training" revisits the topic of education and training of translators/interpreters. The featured guest speakers for TIFO 2022 are Catherine Way (University of Granada), Elisabet Tiselius (Stockholm University) and Federico Zanettin (University of Perugia). We welcome proposals addressing, without limitation, the following topics:
|
• New perspectives on translation and interpreter training • A competent translator in the 21st century: a challenge for trainers • The new normal on the T&I market • Designing a T&I course and a programme • The role of theory in th T&I curricula • Teaching translating into L2 effectively – who and how? |
• Crash course training crisis interpreters • Aligning the use of T&I technologies in the classroom & in the field • Corpus-driven translator training • Non-university training – an addition, or a substitution? • Terminology as a science and a practical skill • Collaborative training on classroom and university level |
The list of speakers has been closed (detailed programme here).
Selected papers are to be published in a peer-reviewed thematic volume. Publications from previous TIFO conferences are available here: 2019, 2017, 2014, 2012, 2011. See also OMLM Vol. 4 on TQA.

About the City of Olomouc:
Olomouc
is the capital of the region of Central
Moravia and belongs to the oldest cities of the Czech Republic.
The region is distinguished for its agriculture, industry and
beautiful countryside, as well as its historical and cultural
traditions. The city dates back to the ninth century, when it
was a power centre of the Great Moravian Kingdom, the oldest Slavonic
state. Today Olomouc has above 100,000 inhabitants
and its
long history makes it one of the most beautiful cities of
the Czech Republic, mainly due to its well preserved historical inner
city (after Prague, second largest in the Czech Republic).
