Duration: Approximately 90 minutes

Course Description:

If your company ships hazmat or dangerous goods, the U.S. Department of Transportation requires the general awareness, safety and security training specified in 49 CFR Part 172.704 be taken every three years. This course meets the general awareness, safety, and security training requirements.

This course covers:

• An introduction to hazardous materials
• Why training is important and what the requirements are
• Which agencies set the requirements, and the publications which state their requirements
• The transport chain, including shipper and operator responsibilities within it
• Hazmat classifications
• General packing requirements and proper package selection
• How to mark and label packages correctly
• How to correctly document hazmat shipments

Please Note: This course is an overview of the regulations, and is not for qualification or certification. This course is NOT for personnel who are responsible for acceptance checklists and regulatory review to determine compliance for a given shipment. Employees responsible for determining if packages comply with relevant regulations and employees responsible for certifying shipments (by signing a dangerous goods declaration or hazmat bill of lading) will require additional training as specified by their employer.

Description: This bundle provides both the required pre-requisite general awareness training and the function-specific instruction needed for employees who prepare lithium battery shipments, combining essential baseline hazmat knowledge with specialized guidance on preparing, packaging, marking, labeling, and documenting lithium battery consignments. It integrates general safety and security awareness training covering hazardous materials fundamentals and regulatory responsibilities with DOT-required instruction under 49 CFR Part 172, Subpart H for handling both excepted and fully regulated lithium batteries across all modes of transport, including ground, air, and vessel shipments. This bundle is ideal for hazmat employees, shippers, and anyone involved in handling or preparing lithium batteries for transportation who must meet federal training requirements and safe shipment practices.
