Society for Chemical Hazard Communication  Professional Development Training

California Proposition 65 Labeling Workshop

Brochure — available September 22, 2024

Course Description

The goal of this workshop is to develop an understanding of California’s Proposition 65 regulations, the required warnings, and the risk-based determinations for exemption from these requirements.  The focus will be on the Prop 65 list of chemicals, the exemption processes, and the expectations for a clear and reasonable warning.  The workshop will include informal lectures with ample time for working on examples of the risk-based decision-making process and discussion of the role that Proposition 65 plays in both US and global HazCom.

This is an advanced course.  While there are no formal prerequisites for this course, it is recommended that participants have a working knowledge of SDS and labels and that they have either taken the SCHC courses Toxicology for Hazard Communication and Hazard Determination and Risk Assessments or that they are comfortable with the basic principles of toxicology and risk assessment.

Intended Audience

Hazard communication professionals looking to improve their California Proposition 65 labeling skills.

Course Fee:        $290.00 Members        $430.00 Non-members
