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
I like the consistency of Lion workshops. The materials are well put together and instructors are top notch!
Kevin Pylka
Permitting, Compliance & Environmental Manager
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 instructor kept the class engaged and made learning fun. There was a lot of information to cover but time flew by. I will definitely use Lion in the future!
Chelsea Minguela
Hazmat Shipping Professional
This course went above my expectations from the moment I walked in the door. The instructor led us through two days packed with useful compliance information.
Rachel Stewart
Environmental Manager
The training was impressive. I am not a fan of online training but this was put together very well. I would recommend Lion to others.
Donnie James
Quality Manager
The instructor took a rather drab set of topics and brought them to life with realistic real-life examples.
Tom Berndt
HSE Coordinator
One of the best trainings I have ever received!
Brandon Morfin
EH&S Manager
Well designed and thorough program. Excellent summary of requirements with references. Inclusion of regulations in hard copy form, as well as full electronic with state pertinent regulations included is a great bonus!
Oscar Fisher
EHS Manager
Excellent class, super instructor, very easy to follow. No rushing through material. Would like to take his class again.
Lawrence Patterson
EH&S Facility Maintenance & Security Manager
The instructor's energy, enthusiasm, and knowledge of the subject make the class a great learning experience!
