Attending Lion Technology classes should be mandatory for every facility that ships or stores hazmat.

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.

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 very engaging and helped less experienced people understand the concepts.

I tried other environmental training providers, but they were all sub-standard compared to Lion. I will not stray from Lion again!
