GISTnet H20u—Hazmat Security Awareness Training

H20u—Hazmat Security Awareness Training

This course is in development, and will be ready on 2004-02-01.

Estimated total study time: 2 hours 20 minutes

This course may be used as add-on training in HAZMAT security awareness needed under 2003 changes to the U.S. DOT HMR training requirements for employer certification of a "hazmat employee."

Note: This course does not meet the requirement for training in a company-specific HAZMAT transportation security plan, as may be required under DOT regulations. This training must be specific to the plan and employee responsibilities thereunder. (Either this training must be accomplished and recorded separately, or an on-line module can be added to this standard awareness course—contact GISTnet for further information.)
