We are delighted to inform you that the Centre for Science and Environment (CSE) in collaboration with Ministry of Environment and Forests (MoEF) and Central Pollution Control Board has started a training and capacity building programme for State Pollution Control Board (SPCB) and State Pollution Control Committee (SPCC). In 2010-11, we organised 3 successful training programmes which included 1-one month National Minimum Training for junior officials and 2-one week advanced training programme for mid/senior level officers. There was good participation from almost all the boards.
As per the agreement between CSE, CPCB and MoEF , this year, we are organising 4-one week advanced training programme and 2-one month National Minimum Training Programme.
The course is free of cost. CSE will take care of the participants' accommodation, food etc. However, the pollution control board/ committee will have to pay for travel, TA/DA etc.
The one week advance training programme is open for officials with about 5-10 years of working experience in SPCB. The one month training programme is for newly recruited officials or officials with 1-5 years of experience.
