Are any additional training courses required?
Hazmat Security Awareness Training (SAT)- In the United States this additional training is required. DGI offers free SAT on our website www.dgitraining.com.
Function Specific Training - Ultimately (in the United
States) your employer has final responsibility for determining if a
hazmat employee is properly trained for their particular job
function. Since there is a potential for limitless types of job
functions as determined by an individual employer, we as your
training provider can only suggest what types of additional training
might be required.
If you are shipping any of the following items, additional training
may be required:
Hazardous Materials other than Dry Ice, Liquid Nitrogen or Infectious Substances.
Regulated
medical wastes.
For the best Online Training experience:
Able to work independently without an instructor present.
Familiar with the use of a computer and common software.
Knowledge or understanding of the applicable regulations.
Fluent in the English language.
It is recommended you use Internet Explorer.
High-speed connection is recommended, but not required.
You can log in and out of the training program at any time, and as often as you wish (except during the exam where you must complete the course in one sitting) Logging out during the exam will lock you out of the program and the entire exam must be taken again.
