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
Very well structured, comprehensive, and comparable to live training seminars I've participated in previously. I will recommend the online course to other colleagues with training requirement needs.

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.
