Through the analysis of the present situation of term education and the presentation of the prospect of terminology education in translation industry, this paper shows the precondition of the cultivation of the translators’ terminological competence lies in the establishment of the terminological consciousness and responsibility, while the terminological knowledge and terminological skills are fundamental. In the era of globalization, only translators have sufficient awareness, knowledge and technical skills of terms can they equipped with knowledge of terms or terminological competence.
