Late last year, the world lost a man who is thought of as “the father of modern hazmat thinking.” Ludwig Benner Jr. worked for decades to improve training and procedures for hazardous materials first responders. The advances he spearheaded, without a doubt, saved countless lives.
To celebrate Benner’s legacy, we’ve prepared a short quiz about his life and accomplishments.
We present this quiz with special thanks to author and hazardous materials specialist Robert Burke, who wrote a moving tribute to Benner earlier this year for Firehouse. His article served as inspiration and a main source of information for this piece.
These are the best classes I attend each year. I always take something away and implement improvements at my sites.
Kim Racine
EH&S Manager
I really enjoy your workshops. Thank you for such a great program and all the help Lion has provided me over the years!
George Chatman
Hazardous Material Pharmacy Technician
Given the choice, I would do all coursework this way. In-person courses go very fast without the opportunity to pause or repeat anything.
Ellen Pelton
Chemical Laboratory Manager
The online course was well thought out and organized, with good interaction between the student and the course.
Larry Ybarra
Material Release Agent
Very witty instructor, made the long times sitting bearable. One of the few training courses I can say I actually enjoyed.
John Hutchinson
Senior EHS Engineer
I tried other environmental training providers, but they were all sub-standard compared to Lion. I will not stray from Lion again!
Sara Sills
Environmental Specialist
The instructor's energy, enthusiasm, and knowledge of the subject make the class a great learning experience!
Brian Martinez
Warehouse Operator
This is a very informative training compared to others. It covers everything I expect to learn and even a lot of new things.
Quatama Jackson
Waste Management Professional
Lion provided an excellent introduction to environmental regulations, making the transition to a new career as an EHS specialist less daunting of a task. Drinking from a fire hose when the flow of water is lessened, is much more enjoyable!
Stephanie Weathers
SHE Specialist
The instructor was probably the best I ever had! He made the class enjoyable, was humorous at times, and very knowledgeable.
