Training Offers 90 Hours of Content in Biosafety, Good Practices, and Waste Management; Registrations Until August 14

The Federal University of São Paulo (Unifesp) announced the opening of 600 spots for the free and fully online course “Laboratory Safety: Environmental and Occupational Aspects.” The training will take place from August 27 to October 10, 2025, with a workload of 90 hours and flexible access via the Moodle platform.

Aimed at professionals, students, and those interested in enhancing their knowledge on biosafety, good laboratory practices, and waste, the course is self-instructional, meaning no live classes — each participant sets their own study pace. Registrations are open until August 14, or while spots are available.

What Does Unifesp’s Course Offer?

The course aims to provide essential technical and environmental training for safe practice in laboratory environments, focusing on work routines, occupational risks, and sustainability.

Who Can Register?

The course is open to anyone interested in the subject, including:

Students in health, chemistry, biology, or engineering
Laboratory technicians and professionals
Researchers, educators, and public employees
Environmental or occupational professionals

There is no minimum educational requirement, but it is necessary to have internet access and a valid email to access the content. There are no in-person meetings or mandatory real-time activities.

How to Register?

Registrations must be made online through the official link of the SIEx/Unifesp platform:
https://siex.siiu.unifesp.br/catalogo-siex/27153/mais-info

The deadline is until August 14, 2025, but spots are limited; those who register after filling the 600 spots will be excluded from this edition.

Why Is This Course Important?

Laboratory safety is a critical area, both from the perspective of worker health and environmental sustainability. Accidents involving chemicals, improper waste disposal, or failures in biosafety protocols can result in serious consequences for people and the environment.

The training offered by Unifesp is distinguished by the academic rigor of a federal institution, combined with the accessibility of free distance learning. It is a real opportunity for technical training for those who work or intend to work in research spaces, clinical analyses, education, or industries with laboratories.

Have you ever faced a risky situation in a laboratory? Do you believe this type of training should be mandatory in institutions and companies? Share your opinion in the comments; your experience can warn and help others.
