Terms and concepts
Summary
This page describes where you can find the current Fontys ICT glossary and who is responsible and accountable for applying the correct terms in various communications.
Introduction
Within Fontys ICT, developments are constantly taking place and being renewed. New concepts emerge and old concepts fall out of use. This is the result of changes in the curriculum or in the organisational structure, for example. It is important to always use the current terms unambiguously in formal situations.
Glossary
There is an up-to-date list of concepts and terms, which is used for all translations of Fontys ICT texts. This list can also be applied (automatically) when using DeepL Translator for translations. A condensed version of this list, with most of the important terms can be found here. In accordance with the Fontys ICT language policy, texts for employees are provided bilingually (English and Dutch) and educational materials are largely in English.
Responsibilities
Table 1 shows who is responsible and accountable (in which role) for the use of the correct terms and concepts.
