This 100% online program guarantees you all the competences to plan a comprehensive emergency strategy for accidents in the Chemical Industry"

The city of Bhopal, in the United States, witnessed one of the worst chemical-industrial incidents in history. Due to insufficient safety measures and lack of maintenance, a pesticide company released a toxic cloud of methyl isocyanate gas. Between 15 and 20,000 people, neighbors of the company, were killed in the event. The disaster became a symbol of the importance of protective measures and risk minimization in the Chemical Industry. The tragedy generated greater awareness in society about the handling of substances.At the same time, it highlighted the need for stricter regulations and this became a demand for local and international legislators.
