Late last year, the world lost a man who is thought of as “the father of modern hazmat thinking.” Ludwig Benner Jr. worked for decades to improve training and procedures for hazardous materials first responders. The advances he spearheaded, without a doubt, saved countless lives.
To celebrate Benner’s legacy, we’ve prepared a short quiz about his life and accomplishments.
We present this quiz with special thanks to author and hazardous materials specialist Robert Burke, who wrote a moving tribute to Benner earlier this year for Firehouse. His article served as inspiration and a main source of information for this piece.
My experience with Lion classes has always been good. Lion Technology always covers the EPA requirements I must follow.
Steven Erlandson
Environmental Coordinator
The instructor's energy, enthusiasm, and knowledge of the subject make the class a great learning experience!
Brian Martinez
Warehouse Operator
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
The course was very well structured and covered the material in a clear, concise manner.
Ian Martinez
Hazmat Shipping Professional
Very witty instructor, made the long times sitting bearable. One of the few training courses I can say I actually enjoyed.
John Hutchinson
Senior EHS Engineer
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
Attending Lion Technology classes should be mandatory for every facility that ships or stores hazmat.
Genell Drake
Outbound Lead
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!
Tony Petrik

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!
