Toxicology & Risk Assessment
Join the Australasian College of Toxicology & Risk Assessment (ACTRA) in a unique webinar series that commenced in June 2020! The webinar series will cover two overarching themes in relation to toxicology and risk assessment in Australia:
- Lessons learnt from case studies.
- Practical applications of theoretical concepts.
These sessions will provide you with an opportunity to gain insight from Australia’s most accomplished and experienced toxicologists and risk assessors, and more importantly encourage an open forum for questions and discussion.
Attending webinars counts towards your continuing education credit points at the rate of one point per webinar.
If you’re new to the ACTRA webinar series here is a taste of what to expect:
