Dear colleagues, please recommend educational products that you buy to develop your professional translation skills - online courses, books, dictionaries, or something else. Interested in medical, technical, and IT translation (preferably English-Ukrainian/Russian language pair). Also of interest are educational resources about technologies for translators.
Thank you!
