SURVEY

Your opinion counts!

• What are the most interesting and relevant cancer prevention topics in your context?
• How can the World Cancer Report Updates learning platform best address your learning needs in cancer research for cancer prevention?

This survey aims to collect data on priority topics for the organization of learning events (such as webinars) and the development of learning and/or teaching resources. It also enquires about which learning methods (live webinars, on-demand videos, self-paced modules, forums, etc.) are the most effective and adapted to your context.

Results from this survey will help to shape future learning opportunities on the IARC Learning portal and the World Cancer Report Updates learning platform.

Please take a few minutes to answer. Your opinion is important to us.
