During a livestream presentation called “DOT Hazmat Training Basics for Shippers” on April 10, Joel Gregier, CDGP laid out essential information for shippers of hazardous materials who have questions about the training requirements for “hazmat employees” in the US DOT/PHMSA Hazardous Materials Regulations (49 CFR 172.704).
Hazmat Training Basics
The ~30-minute livestream provides key details about how to comply with US DOT/PHMSA hazmat training regulations, including:
What job roles require DOT hazmat training?
Why training is essential to hazmat safety
When and how often is hazmat training required?
Five training areas for hazmat employees
Common mistakes made by untrained employees
(International) training rules for air and vessel shippers
Consequences of noncompliance with DOT regulations
DOT hazmat training certification and recordkeeping
Very well structured, comprehensive, and comparable to live training seminars I've participated in previously. I will recommend the online course to other colleagues with training requirement needs.

Lion is at the top of the industry in compliance training. Course content and structure are updated frequently to make annual re-training enjoyable. I like that Lion has experts that I can contact for 1 year after the training.

My experience with Lion training, both online and in the classroom, is that they are far better organized and provide a better sequential explanation of the material.

I can't say enough how pleased I was with this course! Everything finally makes sense.

Lion was very responsive to my initial questions and the website was user friendly.

This course went above my expectations from the moment I walked in the door. The instructor led us through two days packed with useful compliance information.

More thorough than a class I attended last year through another company.

I think LION does an excellent job of any training they do. Materials provided are very useful to my day-to-day work activities.

This training broke down the regulations in an easy-to-understand manner and made them less overwhelming. I now feel I have the knowledge to make more informed decisions.

The price was reasonable, the time to complete the course was manageable, and the flexibility the online training allowed made it easy to complete.
