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
Lion was very extensive. There was a lot of things that were covered that were actually pertaining to what I do and work with. Great Job. I will be coming back in three years!

I was recently offered an opportunity to take my training through another company, but I politely declined. I only attend Lion Technology workshops.

The instructor had knowledge of regulations and understanding of real-world situations. The presentation style was engaging and fostered a positive atmosphere for information sharing.
Linda Arlen
Safety & Environmental Compliance Officer
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!
Stephanie Weathers
SHE Specialist
I can take what I learned in this workshop and apply it to everyday work and relate it to my activities.
Shane Hersh
Materials Handler
Lion is my preferred trainer for hazmat and DOT.
Jim Jani
Environmental Coordinator
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
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
We have a very busy work schedule and using Lion enables us to take the course at our own time. It makes it easy for me to schedule my employees' training.
Timothy Mertes

Lion's information is very thorough and accurate. Presenter was very good.
