ISTA is beginning to offer its educational materials online. The first implementation of this is the Certified Packaging Laboratory Professional (CPLP) program, which is now available both on-line and in printed form. The basic content is the same, but the on-line version offers a richer educational experience, a supplementary slideshow review, and convenient e-mail for questions.

Online Accessibility - Ensures that information is up-to-date, and allows users to proceed at their own pace, review as needed, and return as often as desired.

Discussion Forum Website - Currently there are two forums, one for the general Public and one for Members Only. The forums are participant moderated and dedicated to issues that interest packaging professionals. All who work in transport packaging and share our mission, our concern for continuing education and the concept of professional development are welcome to participate.
