In Today’s Global Economy, why are these Safety Assessment Training Courses important?

Product and material safety is mandatory for the protection of consumer health; therefore, a science-based risk assessment is requested and laid down for the different consumer product groups in many European and worldwide regulatory frameworks. Modern cosmetic products and their ingredients are often based on new technologies, while at the same time the knowledge on substances and products is continuously increasing due to new legal approaches and scientific methods.

Solid data on intrinsic properties of product ingredients are required, as well as on the potential occurrence of harmful contaminants and microbiological burden. This data and further information on the properties and effects of substances and formulations serve as the basis for exposure and risk assessments. The demand on knowledge and skills of product safety assessors is enormous and is constantly growing based on new scientific and regulatory results.

Quick-Facts

  • Fee structure: €1,400.00 per module

  • Attendance days: All fully Corona-safe: ONLINE

  • Flexible Course Concpet: Due to modular structure easily managable beside the job
  • Booking Options: Complete course starting May 2021 or module 4, 5 or 6 on its own
  • Course Concept: The Modules are planned in a thoughtful way, they are interlinked but not strictly consecutive. So any module provides a benefit on its own.

  • Achievements: RWTH-Certificate of attendance (upon successful termination). Based on the pre-condition of an available ‘diploma or other evidence of formal qualifications’, acc. to Reg. (EC) 1223/2009, Art. 10 (2), a cosmetics safety assessment can be performed and signed as Safety Assessor. For more information, please visit:

What is the CCE/RWTH International Academy’s Training Course Concept?

The course is split into six modules. Each module consists of four online seminars and one face-to-face event. This event tis held ONLINE and allows a full day of repitition and discussion of the online seminars.

The content of a module will be presented in detail during the first online seminar. Online self-learning phases are carried out prior the attendance modules, and participants complete a written exam at the end of each attendance day. Each module can be booked individually. The participant will receive a certificate of attendance for each module. After completing and passing the examination of all 6 modules, the participants will receive the official certificate of participation „Safety Assessment for Cosmetic Products“.

What are the Target Groups?

The Cosmetics Product Regulation (EC) 1223/2009 and many other world-wide regulatory frameworks put the responsibility for product safety on the manufacturers or importers of products. Amongst other requirements, they have to ensure that a safety assessment for the products is performed before being placed on the market. Theoretical knowledge and practical methods how to obtain and to manage all necessary scientific and analytical data is essential to complete this scientifically sound and legally compliant. Based on these pre-conditions the addressed target groups for the training include the following:

  • Safety Assessors (SAs) and beginners in the field
  • Department Staff: R&D, Regulatory Affairs, QA/QC, Testing, Formulation
  • Members of the Cosmetics, Chemicals/Raw Materials, Pharmaceutical, Packaging, Fragrance Industries
  • Responsible Persons (RPs) under the context of the Cosmetics Product Regulation
  • All graduates in Toxicology, Chemistry, Biology, Pharmacology, Life Sciences, Product Technology with interest in continuing education and specialization

The Safety Report is the core of the Product Information File (PIF). It must be prepared by the SA in cooperation with the RP. The actors are based globally and responsible for the assessment of products that are either placed on the EU’s internal market or in nations with similar safety requirements.

What ‘added-value’ do these courses offer Participants?

  • Access to lecturers with targeted expertise in the field, who are offering their scientific and professional experiences coming from their own daily work and projects
  • Building skills and abilities to carry out safety assessments correctly and independently (dependant on legal and personal pre-requisites)
  • Individual advice and feedback from the lecturers
  • Further modules or courses can be provided on demand and/or on needs
  • The training platform allows and encourages participant ‘networking’
  • A training program at the RWTH University-Aachen, Germany, a university with ‘excellence’ status
  • A master course is in preparation and from the SA course credits thereto can be earned (based on available graduate status of the participant)
