INITIAL SERIES (1 of 4)
Hazmat AWARENESS
Start here with the first course in our Initial Series! It is designed for those who are new to hazardous materials (hazmat) transportation and covers the essential basics of compliance.
Most students use this interactive self-paced course as a building block so that they are better prepared to follow-up up with our in-depth function-specific training that is required for hazmat shippers.
That said, this can also be a great stopping point for anyone who just needs a general understanding of hazardous materials, such as managers/supervisors who do not directly perform hazmat functions.
