Dear Colleagues,
We would like to make you aware of two
upcoming opportunities for training in risk analysis, one is a Postgraduate Certificate course in Risk
Analysis in Health and Food Safety starting March 2014, and the other is the short course “Animal Agriculture and Food
Safety Risk Analysis and Disease Modeling” running from Sept. 2-13, 2013.
The Postgraduate Certificate in Risk
Analysis in Health and Food Safety offered by the Royal Veterinary College and
EpiX Analytics is now open for registrations. Register
now to ensure you get a place in the course starting in March 2014. The
program, among the first recognized academic qualifications in Risk Analysis in
Health and Food Safety, aims at providing the skills for cutting-edge and
in-depth practice in quantitative risk analysis in health and food safety. It
builds on previously successful training programs delivered by the two
institutions, and offers candidates the opportunity to develop hands-on work
skills and tailor their studies to their own professional and development
needs. Options are offered to accommodate the working schedule of participants
including part-time study and online examinations. Applicants with prior
knowledge in risk analysis and/or who have attended risk analysis training
delivered by EpiX/RVC can also apply for an exemption from Module 1 (and
discounted fees). For more information on the postgraduate certificate please
