The WHO Chemical Risk Assessment Network Community of Trainers - Webinars on how to design a training in Chemical Risk Assessment

29 November 2021
Departmental update
Reading time:

The aim of the webinar series is 

to support new trainers in designing trainings in chemical  risk assessment and to share experience between new and  more experienced trainers. Each webinar will focus on specific  aspects of designing trainings and include presentations  and interactive discussions in breakout rooms where  participants apply the knowledge on their own planned training.  After each webinar participants can continue to apply the  knowledge from the webinar on their own planned training anreceive feedback from other participants in the CoT Web Platform.

The webinars are suitable both for new trainers who will design their first training and for more experienced trainers who would like to further develop their training. The principles of training design are applicable for all types of trainings, from 1-day to 1-year long trainings; face-to-face and virtual web-based trainings; trainings covering any topic within the broad field of chemical risk assessment and trainings for different target groups.

The second webinar is on Tuesday 1 February 2022

and will discuss how to identify the content that will be covered in the training and select suitable teaching and learnings activities that will be used, e.g. lectures, assignments, group activities, practical tasks. We will also discuss different forms
of teaching and learning material, e.g. web-based material and case studies.
