Attendance Days: All day is fully ONLINE; thus Covid-safe

Exams: Each online-seminar is supervised by written tasks; any Attendance Day is ended with a written exam

Predictability: All six modules will be offered within one calendar year

Achievements: CCE’s Safety Assessment Modules will enable participants to perform SAs for cosmetics according to the Cosmetics Product Regulation N° 1223/2009. Our industry experts will contribute their hands-on experiences from doing SAs.
Our e-Training will support those striving to do safety assessments for both the EU & UK markets with further advances one’s cosmetic sciences.
Upon successful course completion, CCE will issue its own certificate for performing Safety Assessments. To perform SAs for clients, companies, etc., it’s really more about what one gleans from the training and fully applies it to their professional regulatory work!

FAQs

With Brexit a ‘done deal’, can I use the course for cosmetics assessment under UK law?

The course is teaching how to perform a science-based risk assessment on cosmetics and their ingredients. This approach is applicable independently from a regulatory scheme. The EU’s framework is chosen as base structure because in its legal text the assessment is laid down in detail in regard to necessary requirements and the assessment steps are supported by comprehensive guidance publications. Wherever decisions are based on specific legal requirements these are depicted during the course and can be translated from this description into other worldwide regulatory frameworks.

What qualification do I need to have to take the module(s)?

Cosmetics safety assessment is a complex exercise involving interdisciplinary scientific approaches in the fields of toxicology, chemistry, pharmacology, biology/life sciences, as well as product and packaging technology and regulatory affairs. All areas will be addressed during the training program, and it will also stimulate and demand to be complemented by the active engagement of the participants. The experience shows that the participants come with various backgrounds; therefore, everybody has strength and weaknesses and these need to be balanced in the self learning phases.

Do I need an academic degree for attending the course?

The course can be attended and successfully completed without owning an academic degree, as it was observed in practice; yet, based on the existing strong engagement of the participant. However, under the EU’s cosmetic regulation it is required to possess a ‘diploma or other evidence of formal qualifications’ [Reg. (EC) 1223/2009, Art. 10 (2)], in order to legally sign on as Safety Assessor.

How much time is required to complete the course successfully?

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. Therefore, the learning is ongoing and the course is giving the start to the continuous learning approach.
