The ACSC has developed an online education resource: Cancer Survivorship course.

Multilingual Cancer Glossary 

The multilingual glossary has over 700 cancer terms in nine different languages. It has been designed as a resource for professional translators, interpreters and bilingual health professionals working in the cancer field. The glossary is a unique central tool that enables language professionals with access to accurate, consistent, and culturally and linguistically appropriate terminology.
