Welcome to Oncology Data Educators

Cancer registry work is complex. Learning it does not have to be.

Oncology Data Educators was created to provide clear, practical education for cancer registry students and professionals. Our goal is to help you understand not only the rules, but also how to apply them to real registry work.

ODE supports aspiring cancer registrars, new abstractors, experienced Oncology Data Specialists, certification candidates, and registry educators.

Here you will find:

  • Structured cancer registry courses
  • Cancer site specific Boot Camps
  • Practice cases and interactive learning activities
  • Links to current manuals and helpful resources
  • Study guides and registry tools
  • Articles about coding, abstracting, careers, and professional development

Our lessons use plain language, realistic examples, knowledge checks, and guided practice. We want students to learn how to review the medical record, find the information that matters, use the appropriate manual, and document the findings that support their codes.

Whether you are beginning your first course or strengthening skills you already use, ODE is here to help make the learning process clearer and less intimidating.
