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.
Very witty instructor, made the long times sitting bearable. One of the few training courses I can say I actually enjoyed.

The exercises in the DOT hazardous materials management course are especially helpful in evaluating your understanding of course information.

Lion's training was by far the best online RCRA training I've ever taken. It was challenging and the layout was great!
Paul Harbison
Hazardous Waste Professional
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.
Caroline Froning

I used the IT support number available and my issue was resolved within a few minutes. I don't see anything that could have made it better.

Best instructor ever! I was going to take my DOT training w/a different provider, but based on this presentation, I will also be doing my DOT training w/Lion!

The instructor was probably the best I ever had! He made the class enjoyable, was humorous at times, and very knowledgeable.

The instructor clearly enjoys his job and transmits that enthusiasm. He made a dry subject very interesting and fun.
