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
The instructor took a rather drab set of topics and brought them to life with realistic real-life examples.
Tom Berndt
HSE Coordinator
The instructor was very engaging and helped less experienced people understand the concepts.
Steve Gall
Safety Leader
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
One of the best trainings I have ever received!
Brandon Morfin
EH&S Manager
You blew the doors off the competition!
Stephen Bieschke
Facilities Manager
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.
Robert Roose
Manager, Dangerous Goods Transportation
This was the 1st instructor that has made the topic actually enjoyable and easy to follow and understand. Far better than the "other" training providers our company has attended!
Lori Hardy
Process & Resource Administrator
I will never go anywhere, but to Lion Technology.
Dawn Swofford
EHS Technician
Lion's online training is more comprehensive, has better slides, and is a superior training experience than what I would get from other trainers.
Robert Brenner
District Environmental Manager
This is a very informative training compared to others. It covers everything I expect to learn and even a lot of new things.
