Lead Registrant Workshop – registration is now open!REACH2013

The European Chemicals Agency has opened the registration to a workshop taking place in Helsinki on 2-3 February 2012 for lead registrants who are preparing for the 2013 registration deadline. The workshop is by invitation only for those lead registrants that have notified ECHA of their role using the lead registrant nomination web-form.

The workshop is part of a series of information sessions directed exclusively to lead registrants as part of the "REACH 2013 – Act Now!" campaign. The workshop will allow them to learn about the necessary steps to be taken to lead a successful SIEF and to share experiences with other lead registrants about sharing and assessing data for the preparation of joint submission dossiers.

The majority of the workshop presentations will be web-streamed and a recording of the workshop will also be published on the ECHA website following the event.
