OECD QSAR Toolbox Training

The only official training courses globally, delivered directly by the OASIS LMC developers of the QSAR Toolbox.

What is the OECD QSAR Toolbox?

The OECD QSAR Toolbox is a freely available software application developed by the OASIS Laboratory of Mathematical Chemistry (LMC) under the auspices of the OECD. It fills (eco)toxicity data gaps needed to assess the hazards of chemicals — integrating theoretical knowledge, experimental data, and computational tools into a logical, auditable workflow.

Strongly endorsed by ECHA and the OECD, the Toolbox is an indispensable instrument for reducing animal testing and optimising resources within modern regulatory frameworks including REACH, biocides, CLP, and ICH M7.

  • Accepted by ECHA for filling data gaps in REACH dossiers
  • Reduces animal testing through read-across and QSAR predictions
  • Regularly updated with new databases, profiles, and simulators
  • Free software — professional training required to apply it correctly

Why Train With REACH Monitor?

We are the exclusive global organisers of these official OECD QSAR Toolbox training sessions.

Official Certification

As the sole official organisers worldwide, all participants receive a formal certificate of completion backed by OASIS LMC.

Expert Developers

Learn directly from the source. Courses are delivered by the actual developers of the QSAR Toolbox at OASIS Laboratory of Mathematical Chemistry.

Hands-On Practice

Theory is immediately reinforced with guided exercises, real regulatory case studies, and step-by-step predictions using the actual software.

Online Worldwide

Courses are delivered online via Microsoft Teams, making them accessible to professionals across the globe regardless of location.

Available Training Courses

Two specialised programmes designed for different levels of expertise and regulatory need.

Basic OECD QSAR Toolbox Training

A 2-day online course covering the essential Toolbox workflow: chemical profiling, data gap filling, read-across, and (Q)SAR predictions for regulatory compliance.

  • Duration: 2 days · 5 hours/day
  • Format: Online · Microsoft Teams
  • Language: English
  • Certificate: Included

Advanced OECD QSAR Toolbox Training

A 4-day in-depth course on complex categorisation strategies, metabolism simulators, and over 20 worked regulatory examples.

  • Duration: 4 days · 5 hours/day
  • Format: Online · Microsoft Teams
  • Language: English
  • Certificate: Included

Who Should Attend?

These courses are suited for any professional or researcher working with chemical safety and regulatory toxicology.

Chemical Industry

Professionals involved in REACH registrations, biocidal product authorisations, CLP classifications, and plant protection products.

Pharmaceutical Industry

Specialists handling genotoxic impurity assessments under ICH M7 who need to generate reliable QSAR-based predictions.

R&D Professionals

Researchers aiming to anticipate (eco)toxicity profiles early in compound development and reduce experimental costs.

Academia & Authorities

University researchers and students (academic rates available) and national competent authority staff (reduced rates available).

Frequently Asked Questions

Are these the official OECD QSAR Toolbox training courses?
Yes. REACH Monitor is the only organisation worldwide authorised to organise official QSAR Toolbox training courses. The courses are designed and delivered by the developers of the software at the OASIS Laboratory of Mathematical Chemistry (LMC), ensuring the highest level of accuracy and official backing.
What is the difference between the Basic and Advanced courses?
The Basic course (2 days) introduces the Toolbox's core workflow: chemical profiling, data gap filling, read-across, and (Q)SAR predictions. The Advanced course (4 days) builds on this foundation, covering complex categorisation strategies, metabolism simulators, and over 20 detailed worked regulatory examples. It is recommended to take the Basic course first.
Do participants receive a certificate?
Yes. All participants who complete a course receive an official certificate of completion. This certificate is backed by OASIS LMC, the developers of the QSAR Toolbox, and is recognised within the regulatory toxicology community.
Are reduced rates available for academics or public authorities?
Yes. Special reduced rates are available for university researchers, students, and staff of national competent authorities. Please contact us directly to request information about these rates before registering.
Who develops the OECD QSAR Toolbox?
The OECD QSAR Toolbox is developed by the OASIS Laboratory of Mathematical Chemistry (LMC), under the auspices of the OECD. REACH Monitor works directly with LMC to organise official training worldwide — you can also find course information on the OASIS LMC training page.
