As a toxicologist, it is important to continue to update and extend your understanding of the science. Individuals can pursue a programme of Continuing Professional Development (CPD), such as that offered by the British Toxicology Society, or work towards registration as a toxicologist (The UK Register of Toxicologists and European Register of Toxicologist), which is seen as a significant milestone in the career for many toxicologists.

There are also several advanced qualifications in toxicology, such as the International Diploma in Toxicology offered by the Institute of Biology, the Diploma in Toxicology from the Royal College of Pathologists (DipRCPath), or the Diploma of the American Board of Toxicology (DABT).

I’m already working in toxicology, how can I develop my skills as a toxicologist?

If you do not already hold an undergraduate or postgraduate qualification in toxicology, it may hone your skills to study for an MSc degree. Although most courses are full-time, several universities offer part-time courses. Some employers might allow you time to study for a part-time course and may even provide some funding.
