Overview
International law requires that all staff involved in the shipping, packing, Documentation, carriage or handling of Dangerous Goods by Air must be trained to the required level listed in the ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organisation) Technical Instructions for the Safe Transport of Dangerous Goods by Air.
Customers moving dangerous goods by air, sea or road need to be aware of their regulatory and training requirements.
This six-day course includes a dedicated day for each of the aforementioned transportation modes and covers:
- Air – IATA (International Air Transport Association) legislation requiring all staff involved in the packing, documentation or handling or dangerous goods by air to complete a Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) approved-training course.
- This requirement is met by completing the ‘Dangerous goods by air’ course. Your certificate must then be revalidated at intervals of no longer than two years by completing a refresher course and successfully passing the CAA exam.
- Sea – IMDG (International Maritime Dangerous Goods) regulations require that all shore-based staff involved with the transport of dangerous goods by sea receive training.
- Road – ADR (Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road) training is required for all staff who may classify, pack, mark, or label dangerous goods which will be consigned by road.
