|
Extended SDS - Understanding & Implementing Exposure Scenarios The extended SDS (or ‘eSDS’) is required for substances registered under REACH where Exposure Scenarios (ES) were developed as part of the Chemical Safety Report (CSR). This one-day course aims to cover the scientific principles of exposure assessment and help you understand how to implement extended SDS in your organisation, dealing mainly with the technical concepts and linking in with regulatory requirements. This course is available on the following dates: |

Introduction to Safety Data Sheets Safety data sheets are changing! Both the EU REACH and CLP Regulations have redefined the content and layout of safety data sheets. Whether you need to supply them or are simply a recipient you need to know about the changes. This half day course will provide you with a clear understanding of when a SDS is required, what it should contain and what you need to do when you receive one. This course is available on the following dates: |
|
IUCLID for Joint Registrants The day focuses on hands-on experience in applying IUCLID5 in line with REACH. IUCLID5 (International Uniform Chemical Information Database) is the official tool for data collection in relation to REACH and is essential for those looking to successfully register in line with REACH. The workshop will cover all the main aspects of IUCLID5 and give you the chance to become familiar with the software and how it can be used most effectively. The workshop is delivered by experienced IUCLID5 trainers. It is limited to 10 participants to provide the optimum interactive experience. This course is available on the following dates: |

Managing REACH for Registrants The REACH Regulation is now the cornerstone of chemical management in the EU. Whether you manufacture, import, market or use chemicals in any form you will be affected by this Regulation. Registration, Authorisation, Restriction, Candidate list substances, supply chain information are all aspects of REACH which may impact on your business. This course will provide you with a thorough understanding of the Regulation, explains how it applies to you and what you need to do to comply and manage its impacts on your business. This course is available on the following dates: |

REACH compliance obligations for downstream users REACH affects all organisations which use chemicals and these companies have specific compliance responsibilities which need to be understood and managed. This course provides an opportunity to understand your obligations and discuss / share experiences with other delegates and a senior chemical industry consultant specialising in REACH. You will understand the implications of REACH and be able to effectively communicate and share the correct information with your suppliers. The day will keep to a maximum of 12 participants to allow questions and interaction. This course is available on the following dates: |
|
REACH Inquiry ** The course is aimed at providing an understanding of the REACH Inquiry process. Every potential registrant of a non-phase-in substance (or a phase-in substance which has not been pre-registered), must inquire to ECHA as to whether a registration has already been submitted for the same substance. Similarly, a company is obliged to inform ECHA of the additional information that they would require for an update of a registration due to a tonnage band increase. The course will provide an in-depth illustration of the various steps required for the preparation of an inquiry dossier, with emphasis on the regulatory aspects and on the key element of the dossier: the analytical characterisation of the substance. The course is delivered by renowned REACH experts with considerable experience in the preparation of inquiry dossiers and in the conduction of analytical strategies. ** 8th March FULLY BOOKED - please enquire for future dates. |

Safety Data Sheets Workshop This one day workshop will provide the attendee with a thorough understanding of the requirements and structure of REACH compliant Safety Data Sheets for chemical substances and mixtures. Several worked examples and exercises will be conducted during the workshop to enable the participants to readily transfer their knowledge into practice. This course is available on the following dates: |
|
Understanding Authorisation and Development of Mitigating Strategies The process of applying for authorisation under REACH is complex, requiring input from experts in many fields and from all parts of the supply chain. Whether you are a manufacturer or downstream user of an SVHC, knowledge of the requirements of authorisation is essential for a smooth transition through the process. This one day course will provide you with a thorough understanding of the authorisation process, including how to apply, substitution strategies, socio-economic analysis and the potential pitfalls to look out for. This course is available on the following dates: |

Virtual Classroom: Substance Characterisation for REACH Substance identity is a critical component of REACH and forms the basis of each individual registration. Analytical characterisation is the means by which substance identity is demonstrated and therefore it must be technically appropriate and unambiguous. This webinar will last 1 hour and questions will be taken for 15 minutes at the end. Participants also have the opportunity to type their questions during the webinar or up to 15 minutes afterwards. These will be collated and answered within 2 working days. There will be availability for a total of 10 participants This course is available on the following dates: |

Virtual Classroom: Ensuring SDS Compliance Within Your Supply Chain The provision of a Safety Data Sheet (SDS) is a legal requirement for all substances and mixtures meeting the criteria for classification under REACH and CLP. SDSs are an effective and well established method of conveying hazards and providing information on the safe use and mitigation of risks. This webinar will guide you through the structure of an SDS, highlighting new requirements and enabling you to assess whether the SDS you distribute or receive from your suppliers are up-to-date and compliant with the Regulations. Details for access to the webinar will be emailed 1 week in advance of the event to all participants. The presentation will last 1 hour and questions will be taken for 15 minutes at the end. Participants also have the opportunity to type their questions during the webinar or up to 15 minutes afterwards. These will be collated and answered within 2 working days.

Data Search & Retrieval for REACH Registration REACH registration requires a vast amount of data to be collected, managed and input to the dossier. Data acquisition can be a time consuming and costly activity. This interactive workshop will give delegates the opportunity to discuss the major issues and learn the most effective ways to search and retrieve the necessary data for REACH registration. |
|
SIEFs: Understanding the Essentials The workshop will address the key issues surrounding SIEFs and Consortia. You will have the opportunity to examine an example draft Consortia agreement and look at some of the potential issues. This workshop will give you a broader knowledge of what processes the SIEF will go through and how to adopt an effective SIEF Management strategy. |

Introduction to the Transport of Dangerous Goods The requirements for deciding whether goods (chemical substances or mixtures or articles) are to be considered dangerous for transport, and then packaged, labelled, marked, and documented are very complex. The course will provide an introduction to the requirements for transport by sea and road in Europe. Their requirements have been in force for many years, but are subject to frequent changes. There are significant changes due in 2011, including some to the special provisions for packaging and marking of dangerous goods packed in limited quantity packages, and these will be highlighted. The course is presented by Desmond Waight. Desmond is a member of the relevant UK Government Advisory groups dealing with the development of these sea and road provisions and also with the UN GHS and UN Model Regulations on the transport of dangerous goods on which the sea and road provisions are based. During the day you will have the opportunity to interact with other delegates and the presenter, and discuss issues surrounding the Transport requirements and how they may reflect, or differ, from the CLP regulation and how to plan for and implement the requirements within your company. |
