The “Proceedings of the European Academic Colloquium on Technical Communication” are a European scientific journal for technical communication. They are released every year and are published on the internet and as print on demand. They publish project reports, educational articles, empirical results of research, and scientific discussions on all the topics related to technical communication.
The sixth European Academic Colloquium (EAC) took place on April 26-27 at the University of Limerick in Ireland. For the third time, the Colloquium was integrated into the Erasmus+ project Tec-COMFrame.
The European Academic Colloquium is an event that focuses on scientific content with respect to technical communication. It is targeted at members of the European scientific community who are teaching and doing research in the area of technical communication or related fields, such as translation, multilingual communication, localization, terminology, and information management. Since 2011, the EAC has served as a significant venue for the dissemination and sharing of technical communication research and practices in a European context.
The sixth EAC succeeded in bringing together 52 attendees from 10 European countries and the USA who share a common interest in the interdisciplinary field of technical communication. With this year’s focus topic, 21st Century Skills for Technical Communicators, the purpose of the conference was to provide a forum for an international audience to discuss the dynamic and fast-changing challenges and potentials of the technical communication discipline.
