ABSTRACT

A considerable amount of time should be spent organizing and structuring hazardous materials training. Participant attitude will begin to be molded the moment they enter the training room. Place a podium or table where the trainer can easily access training aids and other assorted material that will be used to facilitate the training. Modern technology has provided us with a wide variety of training aids that can be used to enhance training sessions. There are many items that can be brought into a training room and exhibited for participants to actually see and/or touch. The training specified by this regulation is focused on "hazmat employees" those individuals involved in the safe transportation of hazardous materials. Time must be taken to develop individual function-specific training programs for each position within an organization that deals with hazardous materials.
