About DOT Hazmat Training
DOT Hazardous Materials Training, required under 49 CFR, is essential for employees involved in the shipping, handling, or transport of hazardous materials, including those who package, label, load, or prepare shipping documents. Beyond general awareness, it provides role-specific instruction to ensure each worker understands how to reduce risk and stay compliant. Participants learn how to classify hazardous materials, apply proper labels and placards, complete shipping papers, and respond to emergencies—gaining the skills and regulatory knowledge needed to maintain safety throughout the process.
Our Training Program
AOTC’s DOT Hazmat training is designed for shippers, handlers, drivers, warehouse staff, and compliance officers, offering both initial and recurrent training tailored to your operations. The program covers HMR regulations, hazard identification, packaging, labeling, placarding, shipping documentation, emergency response, and security awareness. Through instructor-led sessions and assessments, participants earn a certificate while gaining the knowledge needed to stay compliant and prepared, whether they’re new to hazmat or renewing credentials.
