Save the date: Seminar for future applicants for authorisation on 17 June 2013

On 17 June 2013, ECHA will host a seminar on applications for authorisation specifically designed for future applicants. The aim is to raise the overall understanding of the authorisation application procedure through presentations, discussions and feedback from the industry. Due to space constraints, participants will be selected through an application process which will open on 17 April. Priority will be given to potential future applicants not having had a chance to participate in the previous similar seminars. More information will be published on ECHA's website soon.

Report on relevant REACH and CLP academic courses available

As a contribution to the ECHA graduate scheme, this "mapping study", undertaken by the University of Milano, outlines the academic courses relevant to REACH and CLP that are already available from universities, other academic institutions and professional organisations. There are many individual short-courses and a limited number of comprehensive courses that cover full training for regulatory professionals.

The ECHA graduate scheme responds to the high demand for REACH and CLP specialists, both from industry and within the regulatory authorities and operates as an information resource of academic courses relevant to graduates who want to work in this area.
