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 did an excellent job presenting a very dry subject; keeping everyone interested and making it enjoyable.

The instructor kept the class engaged and made learning fun. There was a lot of information to cover but time flew by. I will definitely use Lion in the future!

Very good. I have always appreciated the way Lion Tech develops, presents and provides training and materials.

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

Our instructor was very dynamic and kept everyone's interest. Hazmat shipping can be a dry, complicated topic but I was engaged the entire time.

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

I love that the instructor emphasized the thought process behind the regs.

My experience with Lion training, both online and in the classroom, is that they are far better organized and provide a better sequential explanation of the material.
