Hazardous Materials & Waste Transportation Certification Online Course

Hazardous materials training is required for all "hazmat employees" under the U.S. DOT hazardous materials regulations (49 CFR Part 172, Subpart H). Hazmat training is required within 90 days for new employees; training must be repeated every three years and periodically as rules change (see Hazmat Training FAQ). Civil penalties are now up to $55,000 per day, per violation.

This complete hazmat certification course is designed to help compliance professionals meet the U.S. DOT training standard. Using Lion's Ten Steps™ for hazmat transportation as a foundation, students will learn a systematic approach for applying the most up-to-date hazmat rules to regulated shipments.  Upon completion, students will be prepared to manage all aspects of hazmat shipping, including classification, package selection, communication, and signing the hazmat shipping paper certification.

Registration includes Lion's expert online training curriculum, online compliance references, certification, regulatory updates, plus 365 days of complete follow-up support
