Now TDS e_Learning is available for our business partners! We are not charging any cost, but it's not free either. For those external parties, we would like to encourage them to make a donation to UNICEF, the UN subsidiary of helping children. UNICEF HQ in New York has agreed a use of their link for non-commercial purpose. When our business partners click "non-BASF user" on registration form, popup window appears, and guide them to UNICEF link for more information. e_Learning takes a role in sustainable development activity, helping others in doing our business.
