This Training is also required in situations where HAZMAT is prepared, packaged, labeled, marked, stored, or shipped for disposal and for any facility wherein hazardous wastes are treated, stored, or disposed of.

How often do I need 40 Hour HAZWOPER Training?

40 Hour HAZWOPER Certification is good for a year after your initial Certification. After that, you will need to take 8 hour refresher Training annually to learn about any updates or changes to HAZWOPER.

Can I take 40 Hour HAZWOPER Training online?
