TfS Academy launched

Together for Sustainability (TfS), the industry initiative for sustainable chemical supply chains, is launching the TfS Academy. It calls this a “free capability-building and learning offering for its member companies and their suppliers”, enabling them to keep on top of the latest recommendations and expectations in the area of sustainable procurement.

The academy offers 240 courses in seven languages: English, Chinese, Spanish, Portuguese, Japanese, Vietnamese and Bengali. The courses include e-learning, guidelines, webinar recordings and quick reference guides in six areas: health and safety, environment, sustainable procurement, labour and human rights, management and governance.

Topics covered include water and waste management, managing greenhouse gas emissions, protecting biodiversity, preventing forced labour, transparency and ethics, and embedding sustainability standards in procurement processes.
