Introduction
The French Translation Collaboration Group of SNOMED International joins the efforts of several countries where the French language is in use, to build a common French translation of SNOMED CT usable everywhere in the francophone space of SNOMED International's membership. This common French translation has merged the former partial French translations, and continues to grow in volume and quality in the hands of this group. Furthermore, this group aims at facilitating the usage of SNOMED CT in francophone areas, for instance by translating to French e-learning courses and other documents supporting this usage.
