I really enjoyed the course. I was apprehensive about the group approach at first, but as the weeks progressed I came to appreciate the value.

Continuing education participants
Continuing education conferences for planners provide opportunities to learn from other professionals

We offer training and educational opportunities for managers, technicians and consultants who work to improve the environment and the health and safety of the Commonwealth.  Additionally, there are training and education programs of general interest to the community that we serve, such as lead-free electronics and chemical management services.

A key function of our educational work is to train professionals to become Massachusetts-certified Toxics Use Reduction Planners, and to offer continuing education for these industry professionals. These events are designed to prepare for MassDEP certification examinations, and include:

  • The Toxics Use Reduction Planning Course 
  • Continuing Education Conferences
  • Resources Conservation Planning
  • TURA Environmental Management Systems
