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.
The instructor made the class very enjoyable and catered to the needs of our group.

I like Lion's workshops the best because they really dig into the information you need to have when you leave the workshop.

Lion's course was superior to others I have taken in the past. Very clear in the presentation and the examples helped to explain the content presented.

I was able to present my scenario to the instructor and worked thru the regulations together. In the past, I attended another training firm's classes. Now, I have no intention of leaving Lion!

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

Given the choice, I would do all coursework this way. In-person courses go very fast without the opportunity to pause or repeat anything.

Excellent course. Very interactive. Explanations are great whether you get the questions wrong or right.
