New Video Series: Hazmat Essentials for New Shippers

Posted on 2/20/2024 by Lion Technology Inc.

There's a lot to know when you ship hazardous materials! That's why we created a video series for new hazmat shippers, Hazmat Shipping Essentials. This series explores fundamentals that all shippers need a grasp on to comply with US and international regulations—including training requirements, hazmat classification, and much more.

Check out video #1 below. Then, watch the follow up—"The 9 Hazard Classes"—here. Next up, a video that breaks down the "Miscellaneous" Hazard Class (Class 9) is already on the way.

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.

These are the best commercial course references I have seen (10+ years). Great job!

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.

Excellent. I learned more in two days with Lion than at a 5-day program I took with another provider.

Francisco Gallardo

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.

Much better than my previous class with another company. The Lion instructor made sense, kept me awake and made me laugh!

Marti Severs

I used the IT support number available and my issue was resolved within a few minutes. I don't see anything that could have made it better.

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