New at Lion.com—RCRA & DOT Hazmat Training for Personnel

Posted on 10/20/2017 by Roger Marks

To help managers ensure personnel are fully trained in US DOT hazmat and RCRA hazardous waste regulations that impact their jobs, Lion Technology launched two new online courses this month.


Storing & Shipping Hazardous Waste—Ops (Course Code RCRA 231)

2_55_gallon_Drums_remove_hand_Truckl.jpgThis new online course is designed specifically for operations personnel who have responsibilities for handling or managing hazardous waste on-site, and who also prepare shipments for ground transport.

The online course covers critical RCRA compliance topics for personnel, and includes hazmat general awareness, hazmat security awareness, and function-specific training on preparing hazardous waste shipments for transport in compliance with the 49 CFR Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR).

This course is designed to satisfy both US EPA’s initial or annual RCRA training standard (now found at 40 CFR 262.17(a)) and US DOT’s initial or 3-year hazmat training standard at 49 CFR 172.704.

Storing Hazardous Waste—Ops (Course Code RCRA 2312_HW_Drums_With_HW_Labels_4-Copy.jpg0)

US EPA requires hazardous waste personnel to complete annual training on the RCRA hazardous waste requirements. This online course is designed to provide initial or refresher training for waste handlers, operators, maintenance workers, production personnel, lab employees, and others at large or small quantity generator facilities.

My experience with Lion classes has always been good. Lion Technology always covers the EPA requirements I must follow.

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 instructor was great, explaining complex topics in terms that were easily understandable and answering questions clearly and thoroughly.

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!

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

Our instructor was very dynamic and kept everyone's interest. Hazmat shipping can be a dry, complicated topic but I was engaged the entire time.

Lion's training was by far the best online RCRA training I've ever taken. It was challenging and the layout was great!

The instructor was very patient and engaging - willing to answer and help explain subject matter.

Amazing instructor; real-life examples. Lion training gets better every year!

I like Lion's workshops the best because they really dig into the information you need to have when you leave the workshop.
