The Committee on Professional Training (CPT) of the ACS has the responsibility for writing the ACS Guidelines for Bachelor’s Degree Programs in addition to monitoring the approval process for undergraduate programs. One aspect to the approved programs is the incorporation of laboratory safety into the activities of the approved program in both the physical aspects (showers, hoods, etc.) and the curricular aspects. At the recent safety education summit, a considerable portion of the discussion focused on how to incorporate laboratory safety throughout the undergraduate experience in both laboratory and lecture.<br/><br/>The Committee has begun the process of revising the guidelines to make them more relevant for the next decade. Comments on these aspects of the guidelines are welcomed.
