A Small Dose of Toxicology: Health Hazards of Toxic Chemicals and Methods for Preventing Exposure
Hosted by Northwest Environmental Training Center

What is toxicology? Do you want to learn more about the health effects of chemical exposures? You will benefit from "A Small Dose of Toxicology." This basic course covers the principles of toxicology and health effects of chemical agents.

The program is designed for those who may have little background in toxicology yet must deal with chemicals in the home, at work, or at school. Anyone interested in better understanding chemicals and their health effects, or a refresher course on toxicology, is encouraged to attend.

The course identifies potential health hazards of toxic chemicals and methods for preventing exposure. Chemicals we encounter in everyday life are used as examples to evaluate the hazards and risk of exposure and put them into perspective. Learn the basic principles of toxicology; tools for assessing the toxicology of chemicals; effects of chemicals on the body; why some people are more sensitive to chemicals than others.
