Chemical risk, from physico chemical to toxicology

From physico chemical to toxicology

INTERNATION TRAINING COURSE

Co organized by the CNAM (Conservatory of Arts and Crafts) and PREVOR laboratory, the aim of this international training course is to demystify chemical molecules’ nature and reactivity we live with in our everyday life. Mastering mechanistic cornerstones of toxicology will provide a broader understanding of the practical importance of chemical hazard inventory and that of concrete approach of technological and human risk assessments.

Upon completion of this course you will be able to :

• understand the key principles of toxicology
• deduct the hazard mechanisms of a product through its chemical properties
• compile a prioritized hazard inventory
• assess the relative risk(s) associated with the use of a product in the workplace

This program alternates between theoretical courses, practical laboratory workshops, and tutorials.

This course is aimed at all those involved in companies’ chemical risk management : safety engineers, occupational physicians, laboratory managers , safety officers, firefighters or paramedical staff responsible of implementing prevention measures, and so on.

Be concerned with chemical hazard and risks at the workplace (industry, laboratory, hospital and so on)

English adapted to the subject treated (course delivered in English)

Theoretical lectures, practical work and directed studies, course evaluation. Each trainee will be supplied with our most recent book, Chemical Hazard and Human Health.
