Welcome
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY!
Welcome to this EFSA-RIVM training course!
EFSA and RIVM are co-organizing training sessions on dietary cumulative risk assessment (CRA). This training aims to familiarize participants with the methodology, the Monte Carlo Risk Assessment (MCRA) software, and the necessary data. MCRA is a free, web-based tool for food safety authorities and competent authorities to facilitate efficient and transparent CRA within the EU regulatory framework.
The beginner training is aimed at legislators at national or EU level, working in (chemical) food safety authorities and competent authorities, having no former experience with the MCRA software or are in need for a refresher. For participants without background on CRA methodology, please read a recent publication of EFSA in which they perform a CRA (link) to become familiar with the methodology.
The training requires a browser, both to follow-up the steps in EU Academy and to perform practical exercises using MCRA separately. It is estimated to take approximately 4-6 hours to complete.
Interaction with RIVM tutors for guidance and questions is possible via e-mail (supportMCRA@rivm.nl).
In the first version of this course, participants were asked to use the MCRA-training environment. However, training environment is currently closed. You can use the regular MCRA platform (available following registration, and more elaborate than the training environment). Registration is best done before starting the course.
Note that completing this Registration details form is
