Join us to develop a step-by-step process to safely prepare and offer hazmat shipments by ground and air, in full compliance with the latest 49 CFR Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR) and the IATA Dangerous Goods Regulations (DGR).

Lion instructors are thrilled to get back in the classroom and connect with new and returning hazardous materials professionals. When in-person DOT hazmat training returns to Orlando, Lion will adhere to all Federal, State, and local protocols to protect student health and safety.  
“Fantastic course. The instructor executed the material perfectly. Made the course engaging and exciting!”

Who Needs DOT Hazmat Training?

Do you or your employees classify and name hazardous materials? Select, assemble, fill, or close packages? Mark, label, or placard packages or vehicles? Do you fill out and/or sign shipping papers? Or load or unload hazardous materials?

If you do, join us for DOT and IATA hazmat training in O-Town! US DOT requires hazmat training for all “hazmat employees,” defined in the HMR as anyone whose actions can directly affect the safe transportation of hazardous materials (49 CFR 171.8).

For new hazmat employees, DOT requires training within 90 days of hire or assignment. Recurrent hazmat training is required at least once every three years (49 CFR 172.704). Failure to provide hazmat training for employees can subject your site to a minimum civil penalty of $508 per employee, per day.

Training to Simplify Hazmat Compliance

At the Orlando DOT and IATA workshops, collaborate and learn with other hazmat shippers during three days of dynamic, interactive learning. Over 200,000 Lion students trust Lion for hazmat training classes because our instructors, curriculum, and resource materials are the best in the industry.

At the two-day DOT Hazmat Ground Shipper Certification Workshop in Orlando, we will cover mandated training elements for all hazmat employees: General awareness, security awareness, and function-specific hazmat training. Lion’s hazmat instructors teach using every-day language and relatable, real world examples to help you get comfortable navigating and using the domestic and international regulations that impact your hazmat shipments.
