Professional Diploma Course | Duration: 6 Months

========================================

Course Introduction

The Diploma in Chemical Management & Risk Management is designed to develop professional knowledge and practical competencies in chemical safety, hazardous chemical management, chemical risk assessment, safe storage and handling, occupational health and safety, environmental protection, and emergency response.

The course focuses on establishing, implementing, maintaining, and improving effective chemical management systems to prevent chemical-related accidents, occupational exposure, environmental contamination, fire, explosion, and other operational hazards.

Participants will learn how to identify chemical hazards, interpret Safety Data Sheets (SDS), assess chemical risks, classify and label hazardous chemicals, establish safe storage arrangements, implement chemical handling procedures, manage chemical inventories, and develop emergency response plans.

The course also introduces internationally recognized chemical safety principles, Globally Harmonized System (GHS), chemical compatibility, exposure control, hazardous waste management, and relevant ISO management system requirements.

Through practical exercises, industry-based case studies, chemical risk assessment activities, and assignments, participants will develop the skills required to support organizations in maintaining chemical safety, regulatory compliance, environmental protection, and continual improvement.
