P-REACH Project Commences

The overall objective of P-REACH is to develop an elearning platform and training materials for the European polymer industry to learn and understand how to manage their obligations under the European legislation, REACH. The project will use a 'blended learning' approach, offering interactive on-line modules and traditional 'paper-based' materials, focusing on the needs of SMEs.

The main result will be an industry specific elearning platform and training materials (available in 7 languages) for the industry to learn how to manage their obligations under REACH. The overall impact will be an increase in the knowledge base of the polymer industry on REACH, which will in turn help to increase competitiveness and sustainability of the sector.

This project is supported by the EC's Life Long Learning programme, Leonardo, and will have a duration of 2 years.
