DOT Hazmat Transportation Complete Certification — April 10, 2023 (Memphis TN)

Product Description

Register

The DOT Hazmat Transportation Training Course (GHS Compliant) is an Instructor-Led, 1-day certification course covering the specific training requirements outlined under 49 CFR 172.704 and 49 CFR 172 204, which requires any person involved in offering a hazardous material for transportation to be properly trained.

49 CFR 172.704

It's NOT worth it! Current law allows the DOT and FAA to issue civil penalties of $78,376 for EACH violation. Don't risk it! In a few hours, your employees can be trained and in compliance with DOT regulations!

To stay current with Department of Transportation requirements (required when shipping via FedEx, UPS, the USPS, private carriers, or your own company vehicles), your certification must be refreshed every 3 years or when regulations "substantially change." New employees may not perform hazardous materials shipping functions un-supervised until they have completed this DOT certification training course.
