Hazardous Materials Transportation Certification Public Workshop

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 for non-compliance are now up to $55,000 per day, per violations.

This management-level hazmat certification workshop is designed to help you meet the U.S. DOT training standard for compliance professionals.  Using Lion's Ten StepsTM for hazmat transportation as a foundation, students will learn a systematic approach for applying the most up-to-date hazmat rules to regulated shipments.  This workshop includes in-depth exercises to reinforce the content and illustrate the real-world applications of the regulations.  Students who complete this workshop will be prepared to classify, name, package, and label hazardous materials for shipment, as well as complete hazmat shipping documentation.

Registration includes the free online prep course Hazardous Materials Classification, Lion's top-notch compliance references, certification, regulatory updates, plus 365 days of complete follow-up support.
