picture from workshop

This free workshop offered at the ACS Spring 2024 meeting in New Orleans will equip industry-based R&D chemists and engineers, as well as graduate students, with practical green chemistry tools, methods, and metrics. The content of this workshop will cover green chemistry basics through to the most recent innovative tools and metrics widely used in the pharmaceutical industry. The workshop will be tailored toward scientists and engineers working in batch chemical operations in common use within the pharma industry, but the tools may be applied to other allied chemical industries (e.g.

Sustainable Chemistry and Human Rights

What will you learn? This policy training is meant to support the development of policy input and training of participation on human rights issues, related to Sustainable Chemistry and sustainable development. The training will elaborate on specific human rights (such as the human right to a clean, healthy, and sustainable environment) that are related to the key characteristics of Sustainable Chemistry, as developed by the ISC3. Who is this course for?

The certificate Sustainable Chemistry & Regulatory Affairs offered by Leuphana Professional School at Leuphana University, Lüneburg, Germany provides in four modules knowledge of international chemicals management in the context of sustainable chemistry at university Master's level.

ACS GCI Green & Sustainable Chemistry Summer School

ACS GCI Green & Sustainable Chemistry Summer School

The ACS Green and Sustainable Chemistry Summer School (GSCSS) is a highly selective week-long program for graduate students and postdoctoral chemists and engineers. Each year, approximately 60 exceptional students from North, Central, and South America and the Caribbean are selected from a large pool of applicants and gather for this fully funded once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The American Chemical Society pays for all eligible travel and program costs.

Empowering Academic Researchers to Strengthen Safety Culture Workshop

About:

The ACS Division of Chemical Health and Safety (CHAS) is offering this 3.5-hour workshop primarily directed at frontline researchers in academic institutions: graduate students, postdoctoral scholars, and undergraduate students.

This workshop discusses the challenges of students making the transition to being independent researchers in academia. Topics discussed include: risk assessment of research projects, understanding the often confusing safety hierarchies of academic institutions, and graduate student-led Laboratory Safety Teams.

Workshop goals are to:

Grand Valley State University Green Chemistry Certificate

Grand Valley State University Green Chemistry Certificate

A Certificate in Green Chemistry will be a strong curricular addition to the degrees offered at Grand Valley State University. This 13-14 credit hour Certificate in Green Chemistry provides students at Grand Valley State University with a foundational knowledge of green, benign chemistry and its principles. This certificate can be completed in one calendar year, if all prerequisites were completed previously.

Foundations for Storing, Organizing and Disposing of Chemicals in Educational Settings

ACS Institute

Secondary school educators or graduate students who manage chemical storerooms or teach with chemicals will find this course useful. Concepts of safe chemical management are highlighted using the RAMP (Recognize hazards, Assess the risks of the hazards, Minimize and manage the risks of the hazards, and Prepare for the unexpected and emergencies) risk management system in this 10-hour course.
