Since the Value Jet incident and most
recently the September 11th tragedy the Transportation Security
Administration (TSA) was created to police the transportation
industry. The DOT/TSA has more dangerous goods Special Agents than
ever before and sooner or later they will be requesting your
training records.
Dangerous Goods Training is mandatory by the International Air
Transport Association (IATA), International Civil Aviation
Organization (ICAO), International Maritime Organization (ICAO) and
most importantly US DOT (CFR 49).
Our training sessions are divided into four (4) categories:
Awareness/Orientation Safety Training.
This is a two (2) hour session designed for the warehouse personnel
and covers first response procedures as required by OSHA & EPA,
methods and procedures for avoiding accidents, measures to protect
the employees. Train-the-Trainer program is also available.
Function-specific Training.
An eight (8) hour class designed specifically applicable to the
functions the employee performs. This course includes
Awareness/Orientation Safety Training.
