This online course addresses required topics per 29 CFR 1910.120 (q)(6)(iii), Hazardous Materials Technician level training.

Who needs this training?   This training is required for individuals who respond to releases or potential releases for the purpose of stopping the release. They assume a more aggressive role than a first responder at the operations level in that they will approach the point of release in order to plug, patch or otherwise stop the release of a hazardous substance.

This is a pre-recorded course that includes 74 video lessons and 13 practice sets.    Students can work at their own pace on the course materials: start and stop content as you please.   You will resume the course where you leave off after each session.   Students can e-mail or call an instructor while taking this course during normal business hours.    

This course features video instruction (not a boring set of slides) from our HAZMATEAM certified trainers.    Videos include demonstrations of how to use all equipment used by spill responders.  

Equipment demonstrations include:

Our trainers will demononstrate donning and doffing all evels of protection (Levels A, B, C and D), use of air-purifying respirators, self-contained breathing apparatus, air line with escape pack, decontamination methods (wet decon, semi-wet and dry), use of overpacks, salvage cylinders, 4-gas meters (oxygen, LEL, Carbon Monoxide, Hydrogen sulfide), pH paper, colorometric tubes and radiation meters
