New Course: Understanding PPWR
We've just added a new course to the programme, and if you've been quietly putting off getting to grips with the EU's packaging rules, it's worth a look.
If you're a UK SME selling packaged goods into the EU, you'll already know PPWR is live — it came into force back in August. What's less obvious is what a compliant Declaration of Conformity actually needs to say, what belongs in a Technical Documentation file, and what "compliant" really looks like once you get past the headline requirement. If you want the fuller picture first, our guide The EU's New Packaging Rules: A Practical Guide For UK Exporters covers it in detail.
Understanding PPWR is a 90-minute live online session that closes that gap. By the end, you'll know exactly which PPWR requirements apply to your own packaging — checked against your actual commodity codes and destination markets — what a Technical Documentation file needs to contain, and what a Declaration of Conformity needs to say. You'll leave with a worked example and takeaway templates, so you're not starting from a blank page when you get back to your desk.
We've built it the way we build all our courses: practical first, detail second, nothing you can't actually use on Monday morning. If you've sat through generic compliance training before and come away with more questions than you started with, this is deliberately not that.
The sooner your team has this sorted, the sooner it stops sitting on your desk as a live gap. There are three sessions between now and November, so there's a decent chance one already fits your diary.
Understanding PPWR — Upcoming Sessions
Live online, 90 minutes, starting 1.30pm on 21 September, 6 October or 4 November. £105 + VAT per delegate.
