The web-seminar will take place on 1 day including break.
Your benefit
The training course focuses on the basic knowledge of ecotoxicological hazard assessment. A combination of theory and practical exercises enable the participants to understand the interaction between several biotic and abiotic parameters. This is an essential requirement for the environmental hazard assessment of substances.
