25.11.2014 - UNIDO’s curricula: on changes to the ozone legislation and distance training
In 2012–2014, the Russian criminal and administrative legislation that regulates the protection of the ozone layer was considerably changed. That brought into existence a new obligation for legal entities and private entrepreneurs; from the beginning of the next year they will keep accounts of ozone depleting substances (ODS). No new ODS-containing systems will be allowed for design and construction, and may be landfilled only after ODS recovery. The ODS consumption will be cut by 90% in 2015.
To inform on past and future changes, the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) drew up free distance learning curriculum “Regulation and technological aspects of cutting ODS consumption in the Russian Federation”, and has already trained more than 100 specialists distantly.
Another curricula was launched and 30 specialists are already trained to use distance training technologies and specialized software.
The distance training scheme is proposed for disseminating other training programmes.
