SUMMARY:Making Sense of the Expanding World of Product Compliance and Global Regulations for Manufacturers Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Meeting foreign and international product safety standards and regulatory requirements for your goods can be a daunting task!\n\nThe Illinois SBDC International Trade Center at the Joseph Center and the Illinois SBDC International Trade Center in the Turner Center for Entrepreneurship at Bradley University are pleased to co-present this one-hour\, live webinar with John Allen to help manufacturers make sense out of this complicated topic.\n\nThe Product Compliance industry changes at a fast pace and has taken on a life of its own. The days of only needing to worry about product certifications are long gone.  Today's managers must be familiar with certifications along with chemicals standards including PFAS and RoHS and software and cybersecurity requirements. Moreover\, risk assessments are required for every CE directive and are starting to infiltrate U.S. standards.  Our compliance expert from Product Safety Consulting will give you an update on the landscape here in the USA and Canada with NRTLs testing and certification and in Europe with the CE.  He will round out the session with updates on what is needed for manufacturers to navigate the quagmire of standards and requirements to secure global market access.\n\n \n\nPRESENTER:\n\n \n\nJohn Allan\, Founder\, President & CEO of Product Safety Consulting\, Bensenville IL. Over the last 39 years John has obtained worldwide Certifications on a diverse list of product categories including consumer electronics\, small and large electrics\, lighting\, medical\, industrial controls\, machinery\, gas appliances\, ITE and many more.
