BioRisk Association of the Philippines 2015, Inc. (BRAP2015)

BRAP would like to invite you to join the 2nd BRAP Council Biosafety Symposium and Free CPD Seminar for Ilocos Region, with the theme “Addressing the Evolving Needs for Biorisk Management”, on August 5, 2023, at La Jenns Hotel in Metro Vigan Ilocos Sur, from 12 NN to 6 PM.

To register, please contact the pointperson indicated in the flyer.

Course description:

This 4-hour training/workshop will address the country’s biorisk management needs, particularly for those who work in biocontainment facilities.

The increased demand for improved disease detection and control has increased diagnostic and research capacity. Increases in infectious disease detection capacity, on the other hand, have not always been accompanied by increases in biosafety and biosecurity capacity, particularly in low-resource countries. Numerous obstacles impede the development or expansion of sustainable capacity in low-resource countries for biosafety and biosecurity management.

Using the WHO checklist, each participant will identify different gaps in the Biosafety program. Long-term capacity development solutions must be identified, funded, and implemented collaboratively. A collaborative effort is required to develop solutions that are appropriate for the specific needs and resources available in the institution.

BRAP is inviting you to join the 7th AAMLS International Webinar 2023, with the theme Keeping Laboratories Safe and Secure in the Post-pandemic Era, in collaboration with Philippine Association of Medical Technologists (PAMET) and BioRisk Association of the Philippines 2015, Inc. (BRAP2015)

Course description:

The 6-hour webinar will focus on current approaches and challenges in the post-pandemic era to ensure laboratory safety. The resource speakers invited were a pool of experts in their respective fields. When managing a laboratory safety program, it is always preferable to use proactive indicators. The most effective approach is to employ indicators and practices that can detect and prevent safety issues in the department before they occur. The reality is that no safety program is flawless, and injuries and exposures do occur on occasion. The majority of these events are avoidable, but they do occur on occasion due to extremely unusual circumstances. However, whether an event is categorized as unavoidable or preventable, lessons can be drawn.

To register, just log in to your BRAP ONLINE account.
