Safety Training Program e-learning
The IUPAC Safety Training Program (STP), a global project from the Committee on Chemistry and Industry (COCI), has contributed to Global Chemical Safety for over 20 years. Until now, two main modalities of STP were developed, both face-to-face: STP Fellowship Program and STP Latin America (STP-LA). The scope of both modalities is necessary limited regarding the number of trainees and involves relatively high costs (travels, lodging and meals).
In the last years, it was very difficult get companies willing to host and get partners to financial support for STP Fellowship Program. Considering the current COVID-19 pandemic, this situation does not seem likely to improve. In this context, STP e-learning arises, as alternative of the face-to-face modalities, but with the same spirit and objectives of original STP.
The objective of STP e-learning is revitalize the STP as a whole, broadening the scope regarding the number and countries of origin of the trainees. The STP-learning has four partners: COCI, Organization for the Prohibition of Chemicals Weapons (OPCW), Chemical Industries Association of Uruguay (ASIQUR) and Foreign Affairs Ministry of Uruguay.
