For the pilot program, this Johor state-level Plastic Education Program runs for about six months with the focus on three main components of education.

• Polymer Science
  Topics ranging from Introduction to Plastics, Basic Polymer Science, Types of Commodity Plastics, Properties of Plastics, Identification of Plastics, Manufacturing of Plastics, and Plastics & the Environment.
• Environmental Conservation
  In Titan Chemicals, we believe Man’s attitude and behavior can be changed if we take concerted effort to understand the environment and address the problems arising from and relating to the environment on a holistic approach. What better way if this awareness program is instilled and cultivated in the minds of the young. The education on environmental conservation is addressed and covered under the Plastics & Environment module.
• Project Management & Problem-Solving Tools
  Under this module, the participants will be taught to identify and investigate issues and problems affecting the environment at their respective schools through the knowledge of project management and problem-solving tools. The problem-solving tools in particular will help the students to acquire innate skills for identifying and solving environmental issues.
